Objective: To evaluate outcomes of onco-testis sperm extraction (TESE) and to define potential predictors of successful surgical sperm retrieval (SSR).
Methods: For this study, we examined all men (i) diagnosed with a testicular mass, (ii) who had azoospermia, and (iii) who underwent a radical orchiectomy and onco-TESE. Our institutional database of testicular cancer (TCA) patients was reviewed.
Article Synopsis
- Extra-adrenal pheochromocytoma, specifically paraganglioma of the urinary bladder, is a rare and aggressive tumor, making up only 0.05% of bladder tumors; complete surgical resection is crucial for localized cases.
- This case discusses a 46-year-old male with a non-functional paraganglioma located at the bladder neck, highlighting the importance of using specific tools (like a 70-degree cystoscopic lens) for visualization during surgery.
- Surgical teams should conduct hemodynamic monitoring during procedures when encountering a golden-yellow mass, as it indicates potential paraganglioma, and conduct biochemical tests to determine if the tumor is producing catecholamines.
