Spermatic cord torsion happens rather frequently in young men. It must be discovered early on, to allow for the possibility of removal by surgery. It appears from recently written medical articles that the endocrine function of the testis is protected following several hours of torsion and the risk of immunological damage to the contralateral testis is subsequently reduced.

 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 li...

Spermatic cord anesthesia block (SCAB) is a useful technique for providing anesthesia to males with scrotal pain. This technique has been described and published in the urology and anesthesia literature for more than 40 years. Initially described as a blind injection, anesthesia of the spermatic cord provides pain control to the scrotal contents. The technique can easily be performed under ultr...

Pertinent history taking and careful examination often taper the differentials of the acute scrotum; congruently the ability to diagnose acute spermatic cord torsion (SCT) when radiological adjuncts are not available is highly imperative. This observational study serves to present a series of 46 cases of spermatic cord torsion whereby we hypothesize the identification of a clinical knot on scro...

Testicular torsion, a urological emergency, occurs due to absence of testicular blood supply secondary to a mechanical twist of the spermatic cord. The authors describe a 28-year-old male who presented with torsion symptoms, first in the left testicle and four months later in the right testicle. Doppler ultrasound and surgical exploration revealed disruption of blood flow but no evidence of spe...

Isolated tuberculous orchitis is a rare entity. The coexistence of tuberculosis of the testis with filarial worm infestation is even more rare. In this report, we present a case of tuberculous involvement of the testis, associated with filarial worm infestation in the spermatic cord that presented as a testicular tumor. A 55-year-old male presented with unilateral testicular swelling of four mo...

Introduction: In general surgery, the acute scrotum is equivalent to abdomen, and any delay in treatment may be risky for testis functions, especially children. Among scrotal etiologies, spermatic cord cyst or hydrocele could misleading. Spermatic cysts can evoke long-term pain with exacerbation. Case Presentation: Here we report a boy aged 14 years old referring emergency clinic complaint of h...

The association of cryptorchidism, functional Sertoli cell tumors, and spermatic cord torsion has been rarely reported in the literature. Two dogs were admitted for bilateral skin alopecia and weight loss. Both animals were cryptorchid and displayed a pendulous preputial sheath, prostate hypertrophy, and increased levels of circulating oestrogen. Transabdominal palpation and ultrasonography rev...

The authors report the third published case of hydatid disease of the spermatic cord and describe its unusual presentation in the form of hydrocele. Hydatid disease is endemic to some countries, where it constitutes a real public health problem. It can affect all organs of the body. However, primary involvement of the spermatic cord is exceptional. Implantation of the hydatid larva is essential...
