We present a case of a 28-year-old male who presented with acute abdomen and was later diagnosed to be having ruptured intra-abdominal seminoma with hemoperitoneum, where the pre-operative diagnosis was not made. Laprotomy and complete excision were carried out. Rupture of intra-abdominal testicular seminoma is a rare cause of acute abdomen and hemoperitoneum. The pre-operative diagnosis is oft...

There are several androgen deficiency models that can be used to study the effects of pro-androgenic agents such as Eurycoma longifolia (EL). Suitable model must be chosen so that the androgenic effects of the agents tested could be demonstrated. As an example, EL was postulated to produce androgenic effects by stimulating the testosterone release by the testes. This makes the orchidectomy rat ...

The vast majority of small testicular tumors are benign (75%–86% of cases <16 mm in their largest diameter). Similarly, larger lesions (up to 30 mm) also tend to be predominantly benign in as many as 65% of all such cases(2). However, only 10% of all palpable tumors are reported as benign(3). Of note is the fact that these data have been retrospectively collected from men who underwent testis-s...

Case Report A man aged 78 had noticed a swelling of the left testicle in August, 1958. Within 6 weeks an orchidectomy was performed. The testicle showed a necrotic growth and there were malignant nodules in the spermatic cord. A histological section was reported as being composed of large spheroidal cells intermingled with lymphocytes typical of a seminoma (Fig. 1). In September, 1958, a swelli...
