A male one year-old beagle dog with unilateral cryptorchism was presented for investigation of reduced appetite. Abdominal sonography and radiography demonstrated abnormal enlargement of the left testicle in the abdominal cavity. Both the retroperitoneal cryptorchid testicle and the other contralateral testicle were removed surgically. The retroperitoneal cryptorchid testicle was an enlarged, f...

The testes develop in the abdomen and descend during the third trimester into the scrotum. The testicle can be arrested anywhere during its descent or it can migrate into an abnormal position. Undescended testis, otherwise known as cryptorchidism, is a welldescribed disorder with a spectrum of complications ranging from torsion to necrosis, infertility, and atrophy. The risk of developing testi...

Pseudorabies virus has been cultivated in series in rabbit testicle, guinea pig testicle, and chick embryo media, and its growth requirements have been studied. Intranuclear inclusions, similar to those produced by pseudorabies virus in vivo, have been found in rabbit testicle cultures. The virus has not changed its pathogenic properties for rabbits, guinea pigs, or mice during the course of cu...

This study aims to investigate effect of torsion on testicular stiffness alteration in affected and concomitant testis using improved ultrasound method of shear wave elastography (SWE). We compared the morphology of the testicular spermatogenesis assessed with Johansen's scale on histology specimens with a mean stiffness measured by SWE. A total of 18 New Zealand white male rabbits were divided...

Polyorchidism is a very rare genitourinary anomaly defined with the presence of more than two testicles. Polyorchidism is associated up to 40% with undescended testicles. The present report is about an incidentally detected triorchidism case with unilateral, one atrophic undescended double testicles. A 4-year-old child, diagnosed with undescended left testicle revealed during orchiopexy polyorc...

The experiments reported here show that the infection-enhancing factor of testicle extract is neutralized in vitro by an antiserum against homologous testicle extract. An antiserum developed against a testicle extract of one species does not influence the enhancing and spreading factor of the extract from another species. Rabbits immunized against testicle extract do not exhibit any alteration ...

A preterm (36 week) neonate, presented with his left testicle hanging outside through the inguinal canal. The testicle was pexed in a sub-dartos pouch.

A one-day, full term newborn, born to a healthy mother presented with exposed right testicle out of right hemiscrotum since birth. Physical examination showed normal looking testicle and spermatic cord, which was stained with meconium. All baseline investigations and ultrasound of abdomen were within normal limits. There was no visible associated anomaly. Scrotum was explored and viable testis ...

1. The skin lesions in rabbits and guinea pigs following intradermal injection of tubercle bacilli (5 strains) were greatly increased in size and severity when testicle extract was added to the inoculum. Such enhancement was followed by a more widespread and rapidly progressing disease only when virulent strains were employed. 2. Attempts to suppress the development of skin lesions resulting fr...
