A rare clinical presentation of human infection as a pseudo-tumour of the epididymis - Case Report.

Pallas Klinik, Switzerland.
Article Synopsis
- Epididymal dirofilariasis is a rare manifestation of a parasitic infection, with Slovakia reporting its third case among 20 infected individuals.
- A patient presented with a painless tumor on the left testicle, which ultrasound revealed as a cyst containing a live Dirofilaria repens worm.
- The case highlights the need for physicians to consider dirofilarial infection in similar cases, as well as its clinical signs which can mimic tumors or cysts in the epididymis.
In this case report, we describe a unique case of a highly motivated patient who tried to solve his problem with a redundant foreskin by a sophisticated, thoughtful method. Dissatisfaction with the foreskin made it difficult for him to establish intimate contact. After studying the operation on the Internet, he performed self-circumcision.

Circulating lipopolysaccharide-binding protein (LBP), a metabolic endotoxemia marker, was identified as an independent predictor of atherosclerosis. Although increases in carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT) were repeatedly reported in obstructive sleep apnea (OSA), neither the role of OSA in metabolic endotoxemia nor of LBP in early atherosclerosis were explored in patients with OSA. At a tertiary university hospital we investigated the relationships between OSA, LBP and CIMT in 117 men who underwent full polysomnography and CIMT assessment by B-mode ultrasound.
