Adenocarcinoma of the prostate is one of the common cancers among elderly men worldwide. However, testicular metastasis detected incidentally after orchiectomy is a rare presentation as most commonly we encounter patients presenting with bone metastasis at the time of primary diagnosis. Here, we describe a recently diagnosed case of prostatic carcinoma that had metastasis in a single testis, incidentally detected in the orchiectomy histopathological specimen, performed for surgical castration and emphasize the importance of routine microscopical examination of the testicular specimens.

Background: Pancreatic cystic lesions (PCLs) are frequently detected incidentally and vary from benign to malignant. Accurate differentiation between mucinous (M-PCLs) and non-mucinous PCLs (NM-PCLs) is essential for appropriate management. This study aims to validate the accuracy of on-site glucose measurement using a glucometer with a cut-off of 50 mg/dL for distinguishing M-PCLs from NM-PCLs.

Objective: To investigate the potential link between differences in bladder neck position and the occurrence of incidental asymptomatic urinary bladder gas on computed tomography (CT) scans in female patients.

Methods: CT scans reports from January 2012 to December 2023 were analyzed in this retrospective study to identify adults presenting with bladder gas. Exclusion was based on factors such as prior urological procedures, urinary tract infections (UTIs), and other potential contributors to bladder gas.
