    Pre-Testicular, Testicular, and Post- Testicular Causes of Male Infertility Fotios Dimitriadis, George Adonakis, Apostolos Kaponis, Charalampos Mamoulakis, Atsushi Takenaka, and Nikolaos Sofikitis Abstract Infertility is both a private and a social health problem that can be observed in 12–15% of all sexually active couples. The male factor can be diagnosed in 50% of these cases either alone or in combination with a female component. The causes of male infertility can be identified as factors acting at pre-testicular, testicular or post-testicular level. However, despite advancements, predominantly in the genetics of fertility, etiological factors of male infertility cannot be identi- fied in approximately 50% of the cases, classified as idiopathic infertility. On the other hand, the majority of the causes leading to male infertility can be treated or prevented. Thus a full understanding of these conditions is crucial in order to allow the clinical andrologist not simply to retrieve sperm for assisted reproduc- tive techniques purposes, but also to optimize the male’s fertility potential in order to offer the couple the possibility of a spontaneous conceivement. This chapter offers the clinical andrologist a wide overview of pre-testicular, testicular, and post-testicular causes of male infertility. F.

    Türkiye Çocuk Hastalıkları Dergisi 222 Özgün Araştırma Original Article Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease Evaluation of Additional Anomalies in Concomitance of Hypospadias and Undescended Testes Hipospadias ve İnmemiş Testis Birlikteliğinde Ek Anomali Sıklığının Değerlendirilmesi Ufuk ATES, Gülnur GÖLLÜ, Nil YAŞAM TAŞTEKİN, Anar QURBANOV, Günay EKBERLİ, Meltem BİNGÖL KOLOĞLU, Emin AYDIN YAĞMURLU, Tanju AKTUĞ, Hüseyin DİNDAR, Ahmet Murat ÇAKMAK Ankara University Medical School, Pediatric Surgery Department, Pediatric Urology Division, Ankara, Turkey ABSTRACT Objective: Hypospadias is a common genitourinary system (GUS) anomaly in boys occurring in 1 of 200 to 300 live births. Undescended testes is frequently detected among accompanying anomalies in cases with hypospadias. Especially in proximal hypospadias and bilateral cases, this association may indicate sexual differentiation disorders. The aim of the study was to evaluate the togetherness of additional anomalies in hypospadiac children with undescended testes. Material and Methods: Between 2007 and 2016, data of 392 children who underwent surgery for hypospadias were evaluated retrospectively. Urethral meatus was present at scrotal and penoscrotal in 65 cases (16.6%) and glanular, coronal, subcoronal and midpenile in 327 cases (83.4%). The cases were divided into two groups as those with both testes in the scrotum and those with undescended testes, and the anomalies were recorded. Results: The mean age of the children with proximal hypospadias was 21 months (6-240 months). Of the children with proximal hypospadias, 26 (40%) had undescended testes and 39 (60%) had testes in the scrotum. Undescended testes were detected bilaterally in 17 patients (65.4%) and unilaterally in nine patients (34.6%) in the undescended testes group.

Major congenital anomalies (such as exstrophy/epispadias) are discussed, including the psychological outcomes, common problems (such as corporal asymmetry, chordee, and scarring) in this group, and surgical assessment for potential surgical candidates. The emergence of new surgical techniques continues to improve outcomes and potentially raises patient expectations. The importance of balanced discussion in conditions such as micropenis, including multidisciplinary support for patients, is important in order to achieve appropriate treatment decisions. Topical treatments may be of value, but in extreme cases, phalloplasty is a valuable option for patients to consider. In buried penis, the importance of careful assessment and, for the majority, a delay in surgery until puberty has completed is emphasised. In hypospadias patients, the variety of surgical procedures has complicated assessment of outcomes. It appears that true surgical success may be difficult to measure as many men who have had earlier operations are not reassessed in either puberty or adult life. There is also a brief discussion of acquired penile anomalies, including causation and treatment of lymphoedema, penile fracture/trauma, and priapism.

ABSTRACT A case of accessory penis with scrotum in a 4 months old boy is reported because of its rarity. The infant presented with a tumour mimicking an accessory penis with scrotum between the normal sited scrotum and anus. Both testes had descended into the scrotum. After complete evaluation, there was no other urological anomaly. The tumour was excised and the histo-pathological findings of the tumor indicated a perineal lipoma. An overview of normal development of male external genitalia has been provided and the deranged mechanism resulting in this anomaly has been reviewed with hypothesis regarding etiology of accessory scrotum.

Torad Department of Surgery, Anesthesiology & Radiology, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt Abstract Diphallia and double scrota are rare congenital anomalies. This report records, for the first time, the gross pathological findings of a rare case of diphallia and double scrota in a two-year-old donkey. On physical examination of the donkey, double peni, double prepuces, double scrota and two testes were observed. The two peni were directed opposite to each other at the caudal ventral midline. The posterior penis was the functional one and appeared normal in structure. This penis had ventral deviation and was displaced caudally to the posterior scrotum and testes. The testes were atrophied, asymmetrical and located anterior to the posterior penis in a transverse plan. The anterior penis was not functional, rudimentary, replaced by a fibrous band, fixed to the prepuce and had normal cranial direction. The anterior prepuce was well developed with preputial orifice. The anterior scrotum was rudimentary, empty and located posterior to the anterior penis. Two rudimentary teats were also seen between anterior prepuce and scrotum.

  • Experimentally Induced Testicular Dysgenesis Syndrome Originates in the Masculinization Programming Window
    Experimentally induced testicular dysgenesis syndrome originates in the masculinization programming window Sander van den Driesche, … , Niels E. Skakkebaek, Richard M. Sharpe JCI Insight. 2017;2(6):e91204. https://doi.org/10.1172/jci.insight.91204. Research Article Endocrinology Reproductive biology The testicular dysgenesis syndrome (TDS) hypothesis, which proposes that common reproductive disorders of newborn and adult human males may have a common fetal origin, is largely untested. We tested this hypothesis using a rat model involving gestational exposure to dibutyl phthalate (DBP), which suppresses testosterone production by the fetal testis. We evaluated if induction of TDS via testosterone suppression is restricted to the “masculinization programming window” (MPW), as indicated by reduction in anogenital distance (AGD). We show that DBP suppresses fetal testosterone equally during and after the MPW, but only DBP exposure in the MPW causes reduced AGD, focal testicular dysgenesis, and TDS disorders (cryptorchidism, hypospadias, reduced adult testis size, and compensated adult Leydig cell failure). Focal testicular dysgenesis, reduced size of adult male reproductive organs, and TDS disorders and their severity were all strongly associated with reduced AGD. We related our findings to human TDS cases by demonstrating similar focal dysgenetic changes in testes of men with preinvasive germ cell neoplasia (GCNIS) and in testes of DBP-MPW animals. If our results are translatable to humans, they suggest that identification of potential causes of human TDS disorders should focus on exposures during a human MPW equivalent, especially if negatively associated with offspring AGD.

Objectives: To identify and determine the prevalence of abnormalities of external genitalia and groin among primary school boys in Bida, Nigeria. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study of primary school male pupils in Bida. A detailed clinical examination of the external genitalia and groin was performed on them. Results: Abnormalities were detected in 240 (36.20%) of the 663 boys, with 35 (5.28%) having more than one abnormality. The three most prevalent abnormalities were penile chordee (37, 5.58%), excessive removal of penile skin (37, 5.58%) and retractile testis (34, 5.13%). The prevalence of complications of circumcision was 15.40% and included excessive residual foreskin, exces- sive removal of skin, skin bridges and meatal stenosis.
