Acquired polyps of the male urethra often present with hematuria and sometimes hemospermia. The histogenesis of these tumors has been debated. We report a case of a prostatic urethral polyp that proved to be of prostatic epithelial differentiation, as demonstrated by immunohistochemical
A group of 40 select men were studied to assess the value of transrectal ultrasound in the early detection of prostate cancer. All had a benign digital rectal examination and had either irritative lower tract symptoms, hematospermia, microhematuria, or an elevated acid phosphatase. Of the men, 28
BACKGROUND
Urethral adenomatous polyps with prostatic epithelium (also known as benign prostatic epithelial polyps [BPEPs]) are a documented cause of hematuria, dysuria, and hematospermia, conditions that may prompt cytologic evaluation of urine.

The urine cytologic test findings in 5 cases
The prognosis of seminal vesicle (SV) adenocarcinoma is often poor due to delayed diagnosis. About 95% of the patients die in less than 3 years. Diagnosis is difficult due to the absence of early clinical signs as hematuria, hematospermia and/or dysuria. We present the case of a 61-year-old
The inactivation of ornithine decarboxylase, a polyamine biosynthetic enzyme, by alpha-difluoromethylornithine (alpha-DFMO) was studied in patients with chronic non-suppurative prostatitis. Partial clinical response and remission of gross hematospermia were observed after 18 g/day alpha-DFMO, when
Ten cases of prostatic epithelial polyps of the prostatic urethra are reported. The ages of the patients were from 27 to 69 years, with a mean of 44 years. The most common clinical signs were gross hematuria, microhematuria, hematospermia, and dysuria. All specimens, obtained by transurethral
A complete breeding soundness evaluation is essential for assessment of the infertile male dog. Cryptorchidism, a sex-limited autosomal recessive trait, is more common as a unilateral condition. Azoospermia is an ejaculate consisting of seminal plasma but lacking sperm; repeated semen collections in
