The objective of this study was to develop a protocol for ram epididymal sperm preservation that could be applied to wild ruminants for collection and preservation of spermatozoa from dead or hunted animals. Ram testicles collected from abattoirs were used to study the effect of two transportation temperatures viz. ambient temperature (AT) and refrigeration temperature (RT) on the cauda epididy...

Aphallia or Penile agenesis is a rare urogenital anomaly with an estimated incidence of 1 in 30 million. We report a case of aphallia in a male, who had two well-developed testicles, but lacked a penis. An earlier goal of treatment for such presentations was female gender reassignment and feminizing reconstruction of perineum, more recent goal

The injection of one or several Treponema pallidum into the testicles of rabbits does not induce syphilitic infection. A negative tissue transfer experiment does not preclude the presence of Treponema pallidum in the inoculum nor does it indicate the absence of syphilis in the source animal.

By injecting 131I-Lipiodol into lymphatics of the dorsum of dog feet, the distribution of 13JI in the lymph nodes and other principal organs as well as its histological effect were studied periodically after the injection for the period of two months. The characteristic feature of J3JI distribution was the fact that J31I was accumulated into lymph nodes markedly higher than in any other organs ...

All of parts of body and functions connected to ejaculation are necessary and can cause painful ejaculation. There are testicles, ejaculatory ducts, seminal vesicles, prostate, bulbourethral glands, urethra, sympathetic nervous system, bulbospongiosus and pubococcygeus muscles and pudendal nerve. When there is any inflammation or an infection of these structures, it all can lead to painful ejac...

Indirect immune fluorescence was used to detect rickettsiae in the tissues of a primate inoculated subcutaneously with Rickettsia rickettsii. Rickettsiae were identified by indirect immuno fluorescence predominantly in skin, skeletal muscle, scrotum, testicles, nares, heart, kidney, liver, brain, spleen, pancreas, and larynx. Cell culture assay confirmed the presence of infectious organisms in ...

Mesothelioma is usually diagnosed in people over the age of 50 with large history of asbestos-related exposure. It is frequently located in pleural cavity, peritoneum, and pericardium. At the testicles the mesothelioma had been reported first in 1957 like a malignant non-germ-cells tumor. The objective is to present two case reports of benign testicular mesothelioma and review of the literature.

Virus III and vaccine virus multiply in a transplantable rabbit tumor of epithelial origin; are carried along with the tumor through an indefinite number of transplants; and despite an immunity developed by the rabbit host survive longer in the tumor than when injected into the testicles of normal rabbits.
