    REPRODUCTIONREVIEW Cryptorchidism in common eutherian mammals R P Amann and D N R Veeramachaneni Animal Reproduction and Biotechnology Laboratory, Colorado State University, Fort Collins, Colorado 80523-1683, USA Correspondence should be addressed to R P Amann; Email: [email protected] Abstract Cryptorchidism is failure of one or both testes to descend into the scrotum. Primary fault lies in the testis. We provide a unifying cross-species interpretation of testis descent and urge the use of precise terminology. After differentiation, a testis is relocated to the scrotum in three sequential phases: abdominal translocation, holding a testis near the internal inguinal ring as the abdominal cavity expands away, along with slight downward migration; transinguinal migration, moving a cauda epididymidis and testis through the abdominal wall; and inguinoscrotal migration, moving a s.c. cauda epididymidis and testis to the bottom of the scrotum. The gubernaculum enlarges under stimulation of insulin-like peptide 3, to anchor the testis in place during gradual abdominal translocation. Concurrently, testosterone masculinizes the genitofemoral nerve. Cylindrical downward growth of the peritoneal lining into the gubernaculum forms the vaginal process, cremaster muscle(s) develop within the gubernaculum, and the cranial suspensory ligament regresses (testosterone not obligatory for latter). Transinguinal migration of a testis is rapid, apparently mediated by intra-abdominal pressure. Testosterone is not obligatory for correct inguinoscrotal migration of testes. However, normally testosterone stimulates growth of the vaginal process, secretion of calcitonin gene-related peptide by the genitofemoral nerve to provide directional guidance to the gubernaculum, and then regression of the gubernaculum and constriction of the inguinal canal. Cryptorchidism is more common in companion animals, pigs, or humans (2–12%) than in cattle or sheep (%1%).

Darda, PhD Department of Biological Sciences, 400 East University Way, Central Washington University Ellensburg, WA 98926 [email protected] Abstract Adding an evolutionary perspective to anatomy teaching can enrich student learning. One way of introducing evolutionary concepts into a course is by “sneaking it in” by presenting interesting and sometimes entertaining “stories” that add anatomical detail, encourage critical thinking, and illustrate underlying evolutionary history and concepts. The gubernaculum tells one such story; a story that involves the movement of the testes through the fetal abdominal cavity and finally into the scrotum. While it is well understood that the proximate importance of this migration is to guarantee an appropriate thermal environment for sperm production, our understanding of the role of the gubernaculum in anchoring, pulling, and clearing the way for the testes as they descend is only now coming to light. Even less clear is our understanding of the evolutionary forces that ultimately led to such a seemingly vulnerable positioning of the testes. Multiple hypotheses have been proposed, and whether one or more can ultimately explain the seemingly complicated process and curious anatomy, the essential evolutionary test has obviously been met– it works.

Urinary & genital systems have a common embryonic origin (urogenital ridge) and they share common ducts. Kidneys Fig. 1 Development of pro-, meso- and meta-nephros Three kidneys develop chronologically (cranio-caudal) from nephrogenic cord. They are : pronephros, mesonephros and metanephros Development of pronephros and mesonephro: have a similar development Pronephros Consists of (7-8) primitive tubules and a pronephric duct That grows caudally and terminates in the cloaca. The tubules soon degenerate but the pronephric duct persists as the mesonephric duct. Mesonephros Consists of (70-80) tubules induced to form by the mesonephric duct (former pronephric duct) one end of each tubule surrounds a glomerulus (vascular proliferation produced by a branch of the dorsal aorta) The other end of the tubule communicates with the mesonephric duct Eventually, the mesonephros degenerates, but the mesonephric duct becomes epididymis & ductus deferens Metanephros Becomes adult kidney & ureter of mammals, birds, and reptiles Originates in the pelvic region and moves cranially into the abdomen during embryonic differential growth Lobulated initially but becomes smooth in most species.

  • Urinary System
    Urinary System NOTE: Urine production requires an increased capillary surface area (glomeruli), epithelial tubules to collect plasma filtrate and extract desirable constituents, and a duct system to convey urine away from the body. Intermediate mesoderm: NOTE: lateral mesoderm: somite neural ectoderm All mesoderm is derived splanchnic groove from primary mesenchyme that somatic migrated through the primitive streak. Intermediate mesoderm is situated between somites and lateral mesoderm (somatic and intermediate mesoderm endoderm notochord coelom splanchnic mesoderm bordering (becomes urogenital ridge) the coelom). Intermediate mesoderm (including adjacent coelom mesothelium) forms a urogenital ridge, con- sisting of a laterally-positioned nephrogenic cord (that becomes kidneys & ureter) and a medially- positioned gonadal ridge (for ovary/testis & female/male genital tract formation). Urinary & genital systems have a common embryonic origin; also, they share common ducts.

Apart from the common sites of endometriosis, rare sites other have also been reported including the liver, the thoracic cavity, the muscles, nerves, and more rarely in a patent Nuck canal. We aim to evaluate the clinical presentation, diagnostic features, and management of the Nuck endometriosis. A meticulous search of three electronic databases was performed until May 2020 for articles reporting cases of Nuck endometriosis. A total of 36 patients from 20 studies were analyzed. Median age of patients was 36 years with 33 women being of reproductive age. A right-sided lesion was identified in 30 cases (83.3%), while all patients suffer from a groin mass with cyclic pain in a proportion of 22%. All the patients finally underwent surgery for investigation of the lesion and fixation of the defect. Five cases of malignancy were detected at final pathology. All of them were alive with a median reported overall survival of 37 months. Nuck endometriosis should be included in the differential diagnosis of female patients with groin swelling. An evaluation by a gynecologist is important when endometriosis is suspected.
