Testicles can be found on the male patient within the scrotum. The normal testicle measures three to five centimeters in length, two to four centimeters in width, and three centimeters in anterior posterior measurements prospectively. Each testicle is encapsulated by the tunica albuginea. The support system for the vessels and ducts of the testicle is called the mediastinum. The Epididymis is comprised of three parts, the head, body, and tail. The relative size of the normal epididymis is six to

Adrenal insufficiency (AI) is an impairment in cortisol/aldosterone production.(1) Common manifestations of the disease include hyperpigmentation, hypoglycemia, lethargy, fatigue, muscle weakness, weight loss, dizziness and hypotension.(2) Biochemical criteria for AI diagnosis include very low serum cortisol levels (200 pmol/l).(2, 3) AI can be produced either by congenital or acquired pathologies.(4) Congenital causes include congenital lipoid adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) (caused by defects in STAR)

In the Electronic Health System (EHR) you will be able to identify health insurance and the basic set up for Electronic Health Systems (EHR). In this, you will be defining All Scripts and how Urology is the specialty from the physician. Explaining the applications, the types of technology used to achieve it and, identifying the types of patients or healthcare to which it could be applied to. When you utilize your knowledge on this, you will then be demonstrating knowledge about All Scripts and how

Cornelia de Lange Syndrome typically presents with a constellation of distinctive features affecting several different parts of the body. There is a wide degree of variation between individuals with the disorder in the presentation and severity of symptoms; however, the features described below represent a typical presentation.
