We present a case of seminoma found in an intra-abdominal testis and associated with ipsilateral renal agenesis and absence of the ipsilateral seminal vesicle. Although malignant tumor degeneration in an undescended intra-abdominal testis is rare, understanding its radiologic appearance is important in order to confirm the diagnosis preoperatively and detect possible malformations of other organs.

A prospective comparative study of open versus laparoscopic stage II Fowler-Stephens orchidopexy in pediatric patients.

Introduction: Laparoscopic Fowler Stephens orchidopexy, single stage or two-stage, is now routinely performed in non-palpable testis. We performed second stage orchidopexy as open inguinal approach and compared the outcome of this approach to two-staged laparoscopic orchidopexy.
Methods: We performed a prospective randomized interventional study of two different approaches for intra-abdominal testis.
Persistent Müllerian Duct Syndrome with Supernumerary Testicles Due to a Novel Homozygous Variant in the Gene and Literature Review.

: Persistent Müllerian duct syndrome (PMDS) is a rare disorder of sex development (DSD) caused by mutations in the genes coding anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) or the AMH receptor, characterized by the persistence of Müllerian derivatives, the uterus and/or fallopian tubes, in otherwise normally virilized boys. Testicular regression syndrome is common in PMDS, yet the association with supernumerary testis has been reported in only two patients where genetic testing was not performed. : Thus, we report an individual with this particular association caused by a previously unreported homozygous variant in the gene to enable future genotype-phenotype correlations in this rare disorder.

Cryptorchidism is a common cause of male infertility, often necessitating microdissection testicular sperm extraction (m-TESE) for sperm retrieval post-surgery. However, uncertainties persist regarding m-TESE outcomes and influencing factors following cryptorchidism surgery. A systematic review and meta-analysis were conducted to evaluate sperm retrieval rates (SRR) among patients undergoing m-TESE after cryptorchidism surgery.

Article Synopsis
- Post-operative intra-abdominal adhesions can seriously affect testicular tissue and are a common complication of laparoscopic surgery; this study explored how boric acid might prevent these adhesions.
- The research involved 40 rats divided into four groups, with results showing that those treated with boric acid had significantly lower adhesion scores compared to the control group post-surgery.
- Treatment with boric acid not only reduced adhesion severity but also helped normalize levels of various biochemical and inflammatory markers in testicular tissues, indicating its potential as an effective anti-adhesive agent.
This case report highlights a rare but significant complication of blunt trauma requiring preperitoneal packing and illustrates the intricate relationship between trauma surgery and urological emergencies. Testicular torsion is an acute urological emergency necessitating prompt surgical intervention to salvage testicular function. While commonly associated with intrinsic factors such as the "bell-clapper" deformity, extrinsic factors such as trauma and postoperative complications can also precipitate this condition.
