Agentic Absent testis, Does it Exist?
نویسندگان
چکیده
During surgical exploration for undescended testes (UDT) a situation arises where no testis could be found and labeled as an absent testis. An absent testis either unilateral or bilateral cannot exist without the presence of ipsilateral mullerian structure in unilateral cases and phenotypic appearance of female in bilateral ones. Understanding the embryological development of the testis and epididymis helps to avoid missing an existing testis at high or hidden abdominal position.

Human homologue for the mouse mutant disorganisation: does it exist?
We describe a newborn Arab male with defects similar to those seen in mice heterozygous for the mutant disorganisation (DS) gene. He had complete absence of the left lower limb including the left pelvic bone, hamartomas arising from the abdominal wall, a small penis, absent left half of the scrotal sac, absent left testicle, anterior displacement of the anus, and multiple vertebral defects. The...

متن کاملLeptin receptor mRNA expression in Taleshi ram gonads
Leptin is secreted mainly by fat, which is involved in energy metabolism and reproduction. Leptin and itsreceptor (Ob-R) have been detected in human spermatozoa and testis, thus it can be concluded leptin involves in male physiology. The goal of this study was determination of the presence of leptin receptor mRNA in the ram testis, epididymis and spermatozoa by reverse transcription polymerase ...

Undescended testes are a very common congenital anomaly in India. It is clinical as well as psychological problem for the boys. For the study of location of undescended testes, anatomy of descent of testes is necessary. Ultrasonography is important tool for this study. Patients above the age of six months with history of absent testes in the scrotum either unilateral or bilateral were included ...
متن کاملIdentification of Spata-19 New Variant with Expression beyond Meiotic Phase of Mouse Testis Development
Background: The study of specific genes expressed in the testis is important to understanding testis development and function. Spermatogenesis is an attractive model for the study of gene expression during germ cell differentiation. Spermatogenesis associated-19 (Spata-19) is a recently-identified important spermatogenesis-related gene specifically expressed in testis. Its protein product is in...
