Article Abstract

Introduction: We report a rare case of multiple spermatic cord angiolipomas.

Case Presentation: An 85-year-old man with a history of laparoscopic right nephrectomy for renal cell carcinoma was referred for evaluation of a palpable right scrotal mass. Ultrasonography showed a single solid mass. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging revealed a solid nodule in contact with the right spermatic cord and a fatty mass below the nodule. Right inguinal orchiectomy was performed. Histopathological examination of the surgical specimen was consistent with angiolipoma. He was discharged 4 days postoperatively, and no recurrence has been observed during the subsequent 8 months.

Conclusion: Angiolipomas are benign and rarely occur in paratesticular tissue. They should be distinguished from liposarcomas, given the differences in treatment and prognosis. Diagnosis requires surgical resection and histopathological examination. Once resected, angiolipomas rarely recur, and the prognosis is good.

Testicular torsion is a urological emergency that occurs when the spermatic cord twists, cutting off blood supply to the testicle, and it requires immediate surgical intervention to prevent irreversible damage. Although it typically presents with sudden, severe scrotal pain and swelling, atypical presentations can complicate diagnosis and delay treatment. We report the case of a 25-year-old male who presented to the emergency department with a sudden onset of left lower abdominal pain and left inguinal swelling.

Purpose Of Review: Inguinal hernia repair remains one of the most common pediatric surgical procedures. Advances in minimally invasive techniques have made laparoscopic herniorrhaphy a safe alternative to open surgery. This review summarizes clinical outcomes in open and laparoscopic pediatric inguinal hernia repair, discusses technical considerations including anesthetic choice, and reviews patient and surgical factors relevant to surgical approach and timing.

A 19-year-old Oldenburg stallion was presented multiple times over the course of several months with recurrent colic signs. At each examination, an enlargement of the scrotum was noted, which could not be further specified by palpation and ultrasonographic examination. The increase in circumference was noted both on palpation and on inspection and the size remained unchanged throughout.

Currently, infertility is one of the major problems affecting up to 12% of couples worldwide, with more than a quarter of cases being male-related. It is assumed that Leukocyte-poor platelet-rich plasma (LP-PRP) can improve the function of germ cells and serve as a regenerative substrate as a source of biologically active substances that play an important role in the process of spermatogenesis in infertile men. We aimed to evaluate the proliferation, apoptosis, and growth factors of germ cells after the administration of LP-PRP in patients with non-obstructive azoospermia.
