Cryptorchidism

Introduction Testicular cancer is a very common type of cancer found in men. I have decided to write my research paper on this subject, as it has affected one of my very close friends. I spent most a year learning about this disease from his detection, exams, treatment and ultimately, surgery. During and after his surgery I took on the role of being his primary caregiver, providing him with emotional and physical support. This cancer was extremely sudden and in the end caused various traumatic

and 2: Cases 1 and 2 are 6- and 5-month-old boys, respectively. They both had hypospadias since birth, and were referred to our hospital. Severe hypospadias, micropenis, and bifid scrotum were observed in each case, but no vulvar pigmentation or cryptorchidism. On further examination, palpation revealed abdominal tumors in each patient, and abdominal contrast CT showed bilateral tumorous kidney lesions. Both Case 1 and Case 2 were diagnosed with Wilms tumor. WT1 sequence analysis identified c.1201delA

In this essay, the author will focus on this aspect of the NIPE, with a focal point of undescended testes, cryptorchidism. This will include: exploring the anatomy and physiology of the testes; the importance of communication surrounding the NIPE, whilst illustrating the acknowledgement of cultural and religious beliefs. Finally, the author will explore the implications of cryptorchidism both as an infant and throughout the infant’s life. To comply with confidentiality the author uses a pseudonym

different patients. In our case patient presented with septic shock, persistent hypoglycemia , seizures, hypothermia and jaundice Blizzard and Albert’s3 first reported Congenital Hypopituitarism in 1956, which described a newborn with microphallus and cryptorchidism, presented with apneic and cyanotic spells in the first few hours of life and died within 24hours.. Our patient presented in the one and half month age hours of life in septic shock with

abnormalities regarding growth are- Prenatal onset of marked growth deficiency. Average birth weight at term is 1543g (1000 to 2005g) Mean postnatal growth is 1543 deficiency is -7.1 SD +/- 2.08. One adult was 104 cm. Delayed bone age. Genitalia showing Cryptorchidism. In Craniofacies abnormalities are: Microcephaly with secondary premature synostosis. In one-half of cases, head circumference is more retarded than height, while for the remainder it is as retarded as height. Receding forehead. Prominent nose

labour with no previous antenatal visit. The anomalies are then detected only when they cause obstructed labour. Prune belly syndrome is a rare congenital disease which is characterized by a triad of abdominal wall muscle abnormalities, bilateral cryptorchidism and urinary tract abnormalities. It is also

this missing piece on the short arm of chromosome 4 is a wide range of physical and developmental symptoms and impairments. These include microcephaly, slow growth in utero and postpartum, hypotonia, seizures, profound intellectual disability, cryptorchidism, and hypospadias, amongst many others. In addition, the child tends to have distinct facial features---“Greek Helmet Facies”--- including a broad nose, cranial asymmetry, hypertelorism, micrognathia, abnormal upper lips, cleft lip and/or cleft

klinefelter syndrome, XXXY syndrome, 49,XXXXY syndrome, XXX syndrome, and tetrasomy X. Males with klinefelter syndrome, XXXY syndrome, and 49, XXXXY syndrome are still male though many suffer from shorter stature, enlarged breasts, hypogonadism, cryptorchidism, and deficient growth hormones. Women who have XXX syndrome and tetrasomy X are still female, but women with XXX syndrome will

have normal intelligence and normal sensation. The child will be late in gait development as well. Potential contraindications/red flags signs: This disorder is accompanied with other diseases, such as muscular dystrophy, pulmonary hypoplasia, cryptorchidism, congenital heart defects, inguinal hernias, neurological defects, and eye abnormalities. Therefore, if other signs and symptoms present not typically seen with AMC, a referral is

Efficient and effective breeding is dependent on the performance of the Stallion and the mare. Adequate knowledge of the Stallion anatomy keeps one at good point to make good decision on selecting Stallion that will perform above average (Graffin, 2000, Morris & Allen, 2002) The records of the history of Stallion is a basic tool to understanding the past of the stallion and that makes it easier to evaluate its present. It should be an eye opener to the accurate age, breed type, sexual experience
