OBJECTIVE To compare historical features, physical examination findings, and testicular color Doppler ultrasound in pediatric patients with epididymitis, testicular torsion, and torsion of appendix testis. METHODS A retrospective review of patients with the diagnosis of epididymitis, testicular

Experimental epididymitis and urethritis in grivet monkeys provoked by Chlamydia trachomatis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Recently Chlamydia trachomatis has been indicated as a common cause of acute epididymitis in young men. In the present study, the grivet monkey was established as an experimental model for such infection. A yolk sac suspension of C. trachomatis, immunotype K, was inoculated into the left spermatic

OBJECTIVE To identify the signs that can help to differentiate torsion of the appendix testis (AT) and epididymitis and to establish the incidence of the various pathologic entities in boys with an acute scrotum. METHODS A retrospective study was performed of the data from all boys treated at our

Chlamydia trachomatis as a cause of acute "idiopathic" epididymitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

To assess the etiologic role of C. trachomatis and other micro-organisms in "idiopathic" epididymitis, 23 men underwent microbiologic studies, including cultures of epididymal aspirates in 16. Eleven of 13 men under the age of 35 years had C. trachomatis infection whereas eight of 10 over 35 had

Duplex sonographic findings in children with torsion of the testicular appendages: overlap with epididymitis and epididymoorchitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Torsion of the testicular appendages (TTA) is the most common cause of acute scrotum in children, and yet there are only few dedicated studies of the imaging findings. OBJECTIVE To review our experience with the use of duplex sonography in children with TTA and to evaluate if sonography

The fountain sign: a novel color Doppler sonographic finding for the diagnosis of acute idiopathic scrotal edema.

Only registered users can translate articles

OBJECTIVE Acute idiopathic scrotal edema (AISE) is an important differential diagnosis in children presenting with an acute scrotum. Sonography plays an important role in excluding testicular torsion, epididymitis, and torsion of a testicular appendage and confirming the diagnosis of AISE. The

The surgical management of acute bacterial epididymitis with emphasis on epididymotomy.

Only registered users can translate articles

During the course of acute bacterial epididymitis of nonvenereal origin, severe epididymal inflammation and edema can produce compression of adjacent branches of the spermatic vessels, which can compromise the testicular vascular system. Scrotal fixation over the involved testicle heralds this event

Structural and functional integrity of spermatozoa is compromised as a consequence of acute uropathogenic E. coli-associated epididymitis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC)-associated epididymitis is commonly diagnosed in outpatient settings. Although the infection can be successfully cleared using antimicrobial medications, 40% of patients unexplainably show persistent impaired semen parameters even after treatment. Our aim was to

Multidrug resistant epididymitis progressing to testicular infarct and orchiectomy.

Only registered users can translate articles

Global testicular infarction is a rare sequela of infectious epididymitis, with few reports in the urologic literature since the introduction of fluoroquinolones in the late 1980s. Ischemia occurs secondary to inflammation and edema of the spermatic cord with compression of arterial flow. We report

Epididymitis in childhood: a clinical retrospective study over 5 years.

Only registered users can translate articles

BACKGROUND Acute scrotal pain in children presents a major diagnostic and therapeutic challenge. Epididymitis has been considered uncommon in childhood. The clinical spectrum and therapeutic policy of the acute scrotum in children is continually being reassessed. OBJECTIVE To determine whether there

Alveolar paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma mimicing epididymitis: Case report and literature review.

Only registered users can translate articles

Most patients with paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma may typically present as a unilateral, painless palpable scrotum mass. However, only a few cases of RMS presenting as painful edema of the scrotum mimicing epididymitis. We herein report an unusual case of alveolar paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma

Embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma of the epididymis presenting as epididymitis: A case report.

Only registered users can translate articles

Paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is an extremely rare malignancy in adults, accounting for 7% of all RMS cases and 6% of all non-germinal intrascrotal tumors. The clinical signs are similar to those of a hydrocele or testicular tumor, typically presenting as a unilateral, painless mass in the

Xanthogranulomatous epididymitis: clinical report and immunohistochemical analysis.

Only registered users can translate articles

Xanthogranulomatous epididymitis is an uncommon non-neoplastic process with destruction of tissue and replacement by striking cellular infiltration of foamy macrophages, dense lymphocytes and plasma cells. We report on a 72-year-old man with a clinical history of inadequately treated arterial

[The role of surgery in acute epididymitis].

Only registered users can translate articles

One third of the acute épididymitis (A.E.) admitted in the Military Hospital in Marseilles have been operated, i.e. 33 cases; out of them the last 12 cases have been systematically monitored by ultrasonography. Twice out of three times, clinical picture suggested a possible twisting that led to an

Etiology of acute scrotum in 100 boys with regard to age distribution.

Only registered users can translate articles

A review of 100 boys less than 15 years old who were hospitalized for an acute scrotum revealed that the most common causes of the disorder were testicular torsion, including torsion of the spermatic cord (42 per cent) and torsion of the appendages (32 per cent). The remaining 26 per cent of the
