Varicoceles are defined as abnormal dilations of the spermatic vein or the pampiniform plexus and are more common on the left side. Careful physical examination of the contralateral scrotal side is essential as bilateral varicoceles are common.

spermatic cord liposarcomas are very rare tumors. patients usually present with painless growing scrotal swellings which are clinically misdiagnosed as hernia. the correct diagnosis is not common and usually they present as operative or histological surprises. to our knowledge, there are about 186 similar cases reported in the literature. herein we report three cases of spermatic cord liposarco...

Stallions (n = 8) were implanted with a thermal sensory device in the muscle of the neck and the subcutaneous tissue of the scrotum and then assigned to either a nonexercise (Non-EX; n = 4) or exercise (EX; n = 4) group. A motorized equine exerciser was used to work EX stallions 30 min/d for 4 d/wk during a 12-wk period from July through October 2010. Temperatures (subcutaneous scrotal, intramu...

This study reports the immunohistochemical localization of alpha-smooth muscle actin, cytokeratin, desmin and vimentin cytoskeletal proteins in the abdominal and contralateral scrotal testes of mature and immature spontaneously unilateral cryptorchid West African Dwarf Goats (WADGs). Smooth muscle actin and desmin were co-expressed in the capsule, peritubule and the interstitium of the mature (...

A 63-year-old man presented with a painless left scrotal swelling. Ultrasonography revealed intra-scrotal fluid retention and scrotal puncture collected 200ml of straw colored fluid, leading to a diagnosis of hydrocele testis. Three months later, he received next aspiration of 360 ml for scrotal re-swelling. He came back 4 months later with much larger scrotal swelling extending to left inguina...
