In this study, the effectiveness of intra-testicular ethanol and calcium chloride administrations was compared for chemical-castration in 12 mixbred young bulls (12-15 months old and 250-400 kg). Ten ml of absolute ethanol or 10 ml of a 30 % calcium chloride solution were administered intra-testicularly in each testicle which were removed with the open surgical technique after 60 days for histo...

Seminiferous tubular atrophy may involve indirectly the disruption of estrogen receptor-α (ESR1) function in efferent ductules of the testis. ESR1 helps to maintain fluid resorption by the ductal epithelium and the inhibition or stimulation of this activity in rodent species will lead to fluid accumulation in the lumen. If not resolved, the abnormal buildup of fluid in the head of the epididymi...

This study was of 135 patients with a complete spinal cord section suffered from loss of ejaculation. The spinal cord injuries were classified following the upper and the lower limits of the lesion. The volume of the testes of the patients and of 13 normal control subjects were measured. Physostigmine allowed 75 patients to ejaculate and 15 of them procreated. The possibility of ejaculation aft...

Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a systemic vasculitis which may result in thrombosis or aneurysm formation in any organ of the body. We report a case polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) resulting in bilateral asynchronous testicular necrosis. A 55-year-old male developed acute onset of left testicular pain resulting in a left orchiectomy and right orchidopexy for an ischemic left testicle without evidence...

Objective To evaluate the management and outcomes of patients who presented with torsion of an undescended testis and review the reported series in the literature. Methods The case records of 13 patients operated for testicular torsion involving undescended testis were retrospectively reviewed. The medical records included age at presentation, medical history, physical examination, operative ...

INTRODUCTION Although variations in the origin of the testicular artery are not uncommon, few reports about a high origin from the abdominal aorta exist in the literature. We discuss the case of a high origin of the testicular artery, its embryology, classification systems, and its clinical significance. CASE PRESENTATION We report a very rare case of high origin of the left testicular artery...

Background: Testicular torsion is one of the urological emergencies that require immediate scrotum exploration. Characteristics testicular patients, variated time exploration, and findings degree at exploration can affect outcome testicles. The study aimed to determine characteristics diagnosed patients identify predictors salvage.Method: method used in was cohort retrospective with inclusion e...
