Giant InguinoScrotal Hernia: A case report Abstract: Giant Inguino scrotal hernia, though an uncommon entity presents with operative dilemma as there are no standard surgical procedure. Here we present a case of giant inguinoscrotal hernia which was partly reducible. Patient underwent mesh repair after reduction of content through inguinal and lower midline laprotomy with scotal reconstruction. Key words: Giant inguino-scrotal hernia, mesh repair. Introduction: Giant inginoscrotal hernia are

Impact of Endosulfan on Male Reproductive functions - a review ABSTRACT Endosulfan is an organochlorine insecticide and acaracide used to control a broad range of insect and arthropod pests on a wide variety of crops in many agrosystems. It can cause acute and chronic toxicity. Endosulfan is a neurotoxin, haematoxin, genotoxin and nephrotoxin. Toxicity of this insecticide on reproductive organs is confirmed. So this article reviews experimental and epidemiological studies of reproductive toxicity

Why am I having this test? The 17-ketosteroid test is a test used to help diagnose adrenal problems, including adrenal tumors and adrenal enlargement (hyperplasia). What is being tested? In this test, the level of the 17-ketosteroid hormone in urine is measured. This hormone is the breakdown product of the male sex hormone and other hormones that are released by the adrenal cortex. What kind of sample is taken? Your urine will be collected for a 24-hour period of time. How do I collect samples at

The testicles initially develop in the belly (abdomen). The testicles move down into the scrotum before birth. As they do this, some of the lining of the abdomen comes down as a tube with the testes. This tube connects the abdomen to the scrotum but is usually closed at birth. However, sometimes, it remains open. A hydrocele forms either because fluid produced in the abdomen: • Was trapped in the scrotum when the tube closed (most common hydrocele). • Can pass back and forth between the scrotum

1. Based on the information provided about the regulation of testosterone secretion, propose a testable hypothesis to explain how trenbolone acetate caused Frank’s testicles to shrink. If Frank uses the anabolic steroids then his testicles will continue to shrink because the hypothalamus will continue to signal the testicles to stop testosterone production but it is actually the steroids giving extra testosterone into the blood. 2. Propose an experiment to test your hypothesis. For my experiment

Testicular Cancer Testicular cancer is a cancer that only occurs on men. This cancer forms in the testicles, or testes, of a male. The testicles are positioned inside of the scrotum which is next to the penis and looks like a bag of skin. The purpose of the testicles is to produce sperm and they contain sex hormones. “Reproductive bodies called germ cells develop into sperm through a process of cellular division called meiosis (4).” Normally cell division is regulated but in testicular cancer

abnormal in one or two of the testicles. This cancer is most common to men ages 20 to 35 years old. The exact reason for why people get testicular cancer is not yet known, but risk factors for getting it are kidney and penile abnormalities. Having testicular cancer in past family history is a risk factor. Also from being Caucasian there is a bigger chance of getting testicular cancer. A sign of this cancer is the swelling of the testicles Swelling of the testicles. Back pains, abdomen, and groin

cancer is highly treatable, even when cancer has spread beyond the testicle. Depending on the type and stage of testicular cancer, you may receive one of several treatments, or a combination. Regular testicular self-examinations can help identify growths early, when the chance for successful treatment of testicular cancer is highest. What

native Erik Strand gave himself a testicular exam, and discovered what seemed to feel like a ball bearing protruding from his right testicle. It was painless and did not cause discomfort at the time. Over the next few weeks, he noticed the testicle getting larger and harder. The following few weeks included visits to his primary care physician, an ultrasound of his testicle, and several blood tests. In the summer of 1997, Erik

Congenital abnormality • Arterial inflow is compromised. • Irreversible damage may occur after 6-12 hours A. Location and type of pain-Sudden sever pain in one testicle accompanied by swelling or the patient may present with more gradual pain and may have pain for several days. B. Associated symptoms Sudden severe pain in one testicle. The pain may occur without a clear reason. • Swelling within one side of the scrotum (scrotal
