Doxorubicin Affects Testicular Lipids with Long-Chain (C

Doxorubicin disrupts spermatogenesis by causing apoptosis of spermatogonia and primary spermatocytes. The aim of this study was to examine the effect of this agent on adult rat testicular lipids and their fatty acids. A single dose (7.5 mg/kg) and a multidose regime (3 mg/kg once a week for 4 weeks) were evaluated. Both treatments resulted in the gradual loss of spermatogenic cells and determin...

Testicular lipids. I. Effects of unilateral cryptorchidism on lipid classes.

were analysed for wet and dry weight, total lipid, total, free and esterified cholesterol, total carboxyl ester, lipid phosphorus and triglyceride. The translocated testes decreased in wet and dry weight (P<0\m=.\001) and total lipid content (P< 0\m=.\001)6 days after surgery. Lipid concentration increased (P<0\m=.\01)in translocated testes, as did concentrations of total cholesterol (P<0\m=.\0...

Usually occurs between the third and fourth decade of life, the most common symptom is acute onset orchialgia; Scrotal US remains the first assessment tool, it is described as a wedge-shaped or rounded area of hypoechogenicity within the testis, at doppler evaluation with ...

Testicular sarcoidosis masquerading as testicular carcinoma

We present a case of a 27-year-old man with a history of weight loss. A chest x-ray demonstrated hilar lymphadenopathy and he was treated with anti tuberculosis treatment. He noticed a painless left scrotal swelling and a scrotal ultrasound scan raised the possibility of testicular cancer. He underwent an orchidectomy and histology confirmed a testicular sarcoidosis. He was commenced on steroid...
