Benign testicular tumours are uncommon but if recognized can enable a conservative approach to surgery to be recommended. This pictorial review demonstrates the variety of sonographic appearances of testicular epidermoid cysts correlating them with pathological findings in 19 lesions, the largest reported imaged series to date. Atchley, J. T. M., Dewbury, K. C. (2000). Clinical Radiology 55, 493-502.

Background: Testicular torsion (TT) is a urological emergency requiring prompt intervention to prevent irreversible damage to the testicle.
Objective: This study aims to assess trends in men's TT referrals, diagnostic evaluation through Doppler sonography (DS) scan, symptoms before surgery, orchidectomy rates, and TT laterality in relation to age and seasons of the year.
Methods: This observational retrospective cohort study included all patients treated for TT at King Abdullah University Hospital between 2009 and 2021.

The presence of pharmaceuticals in aquatic ecosystems and their impact on humans and the environment are growing concerns in environmental health. This study aimed to evaluate the potential reproductive effects of diclofenac, ibuprofen, and aspirin on dissociated ovarian and testicular cells from Arabian Sea bream, Acanthopagrus arabicus. The cells were exposed to varying concentrations of the pharmaceuticals for 48 h.
