Polyorquidism: case report comparing ultrasonography and magnetic resonance imaging

Abstract Introduction: polyorchidism is an unusual pathology, about 200 cases in the world literature. Case report: we reported a case of polyorchidism in a 16-year-old male patient diagnosed by ultrasound and confirmed by magnetic resonance imaging. Discussion: most of the cases presented, there is a supernumerary testis, but there are reports on more than three, up to five testicles with supranumerical gonads on both sides of the scrotum. The diagnosis is usually performed in late puberty, incidentally, with a painless scrotal mass or at the emergency room, presenting a testicular torsion of the whole hemiscrotum or supernumerary testisalone, and the differential diagnosis should be made with epididymal cyst and spermatocele, besides other extra-testicular masses (hydroceles, varicoceles, lipomas, tumors.) and para-testicular masses (hernias, scrotal calculi). After the initial clinical evaluation, ultrasound is the first line subsidiary exam. Magnetic Resonance Imaging is very helpful, just in case the ultrasound diagnosis is uncertain. The supernumerary testishave the same Magnetic Resonance Imaging characteristics as the normal testes (intermediate signal intensity on T1- weighted images and high signal intensity on T2-weighted images).

Polyorchidism a rare cause of scrotal masses in the child a case report

Scrotal masse due to polyorchidism is not frequent in children. We report 1 case of polyorchidism associated an hydrocele in an eight years old boy. The diagnostic of the scrotal masses was done by physical examination. Cure of hydrocele was done with a conservative management of the polyorchidisme based on clinical and sonography surveillance of supernumerary testicle.

Polyorchidism: A Case Report and Review

Polyorchidism is defined as the presence of two or more testis. We report on an interesting case of polyorchidism in a 22-year-old man diagnosed by ultrasound and discuss the physical properties of all the testis by ultrasound elastography.

A Unique Case of Intraabdominal Polyorchidism: A Case Study.

Background. Polyorchidism, alternatively supernumerary testes (SNT), is a condition where an individual is born with more than two testicles. This congenital anomaly is quite rare and the literature has described various presentations. Questions/Purposes. To our knowledge, this presentation of polyorchidism has yet to be described in the literature. The goal of this case study is to add to the pediatric, general, and urologic surgery's body of knowledge of the subject matter. Case Study. A nine-month-old boy was admitted for an impalpable right testis and phimosis. At the time of surgical exploration, there appeared to be polyorchid testis on the right-hand side, with three masses that potentially appeared to be undescended testes. Discussion. Proponents of a conservative approach argue that infertility is common in patients with polyorchidism and, by preserving a potentially functional SNT, there may be improved spermatogenesis. When performing definitive surgical treatment, meticulous intra-abdominal and intrainguinal exploration must be undertaken. Orchiopexy should be performed to reduce the chances of torsion, malignancy, and infertility. Conclusion. Our case is important to the literature as it is the first known case of polyorchidism with 3 SNT on the right side, located intra-abdominally, and in a patient less than 1 year of age.

Polyorchidism Presenting with Undescended Testis

We report on a case of polyorchidism that presented as undescended testis. Polyorchidism is defined as the presence of more than two testes. As in our case, most cases occur on the left side. The inferior testis is evidently larger than the accessory testis in all of the cases in the literature and, as far as we know, the present case is the first with the small testis located more distally than the larger one. The accessory testis had no reproductive potential due to a lack of attachment to a cord structure; therefore, it was removed because of the high risk of malignancy.

Polyorchidism: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

We report on a case of polyorchidism associated with left-sided inguinal hernia and hydrocele. Biopsies of both testes revealed normal histological pattern. After the hernia repair and hydrocelectomy both testes were left at their original places in the scrotum and fixed. Polyorchidism and its management are discussed briefly.

Deoxyribonucleic Acid and Cytological Detection of Y-Containing Cells in an XX Hypospadiac Boy with Polyorchidism

A hypospadiac boy with a hypoplastic penis and an apparent 46,XX karyotype in blood and testis cultures is described. Exploratory laparotomy and bilateral gonadal biopsy revealed the presence of 2 testes in the right and 1 in the left hemiscrotum, each of which only showed hypoplastic testicular tissues histologically. Uncultured testis smears showed Y chromatin in approximately 20% of the cells. Also, the Southern blot and polymerase chain reaction analyses detected a weak but distinct signal of Y chromosome-derived deoxyribonucleic acid sequences in the perineal skin but not in the blood lymphocytes. The results indicated that the boy had a small proportion of Y chromosome-containing cells in the form of mosaicism in limited tissues, such as the testes and perineal skin. This finding may have implications in the genesis of testes in some cases of XX patients, and true hermaphrodites or male pseudohermaphrodites with an apparent 46,XX karyotype. To our knowledge, this appears to be the first case of polyorchidism with an identified chromosome abnormality.

Polyorchidism in a Newborn: Case Report and Review of the Literature

A case of polyorchidism in a newborn is reported. The left scrotum contained two testes sharing the same epididymis and vas deferens. The histometric testicular parameters were normal in the three testes, except for a slightly reduced tubular fertility index in the supernumerary testis.

Polyorchidism: Case Report and Review of the Literature

A case of polyorchidism in an 8-year-old boy is described. This is the first reported case from Iraq and the fifth reported case in the world literature where complete duplication of the testis, epididymis, and the spermatic cord has occurred.

Polyorchidism with normalspermatogenesis

A case of polyorchidism with normal spermatogenesis is reported; embryology and possible mechanisms of development are discussed.
