Aim: This paper aims to report the second case of mucinous carcinoma scrotum revealed by scrotal fistulas listed in literature and highlight difficulties search encountered management urogenital cancers developing countries. Case presentation: was a 62-year-old patient who had consulted for fistulized lesions associated with urinary disorders. Physical examination found budding from which mucus...

Subcutaneous and scrotal emphysema are rare complications of suprapubic cystostomy. We present here a rare case of an 81-year-old man with colovesical fistula who had severe subcutaneous and scrotal emphysema after percutaneous suprapubic cystostomy was performed. We inserted a new Foley catheter via the urethra, removed the suprapubic cystostomy and incised his scrotal emphysema for open drain...

Few data are available on the true incidence of chronic scrotal pain and most figures relate to post-vasectomy pain syndrome. However, a crude incidence of 350-400 cases of chronic scrotal pain per 100 000 men per year has been estimated on the basis of a questionnaire among Swiss urologists. Data on the impact of scrotal pain on quality of life are lacking. These patients are challenging to bo...

A 38 year old man with a 14-month history of a large scrotal mass was seen in the emergency room complaining of asthenia, fever, pain, and fetid discharge through the scrotal skin. On physical examination an 11 cm tumor was revealed in the right hemiscrotum with scrotal gangrene and two ulcers in the left hemiscrotum (Figure 1). The patient had been treated for schizophrenia for 8 years and fai...

Mechanisms of testicular thermoregulation, the relationship of scrotal, testicular vascular cone (TVC), and testicular morphology with thermoregulatory capability, and their effects on semen quality and sperm production were studied in 20 Bos indicus, 28 crossbred, and 26 Bos taurus bulls. The ratio of testicular artery length and volume to testicular volume were larger (P<0.05) in B. indicus a...

Acute scrotal pain and swelling in children is commonly attributed to torsion of the testis or of the testicular appendage. However, following suppurative appendicitis, scrotal abscess secondary to a patent processus vaginalis must be considered.

PURPOSE We describe a new type of perineum based scrotal flap with biaxial vascularization supplied by both superficial perineal arteries. Flap length of up to 20 cm. may be attained for urethral reconstruction. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 37 men with complex urethral stenosis of different etiologies underwent surgery using 1 of 3 urethroplasty techniques based on this new flap. The whol...

quantitative histology of the descended testis of unilateral cryptorchid bucks was compared with testis of normal bucks to evaluate the reproductive potentials of the scrotal testis in unilateral cryptorchids, using light microscopy techniques. the contralateral scrotal testes of the unilateral cryptorchids and the testes of the normal bucks contained profiles of seminiferous epithelium and eac...

In this paper, we have used two approaches to detect genetic associations with scrotal hernias in commercial pigs. Firstly, we have investigated the effects of runs of homozygosity (ROH) with the appearance of scrotal hernias, followed by a Genome Wide Association Study (GWAS). The phenotype classification was based on visual appearance of scrotal hernias. Each affected animal was matched to a ...

BACKGROUND An acute scrotum concerns endoscrotal organs (testicles, spermatic cord, tunica vaginalis) and is characterized by pain, swelling and hyperemia of the hemi-scrotum. It represents one of the most common surgical emergencies in children often caused by testicular torsion; the diagnosis is mostly clinical but must be supported by ultrasonographic examination of the scrotal region in ass...
