Testicular and epididymal involvement in Fabry's disease

The Journal of Pathology, 1983
AbstractAutopsy specimens of the testes and epididymis of a 32‐year‐old male with Fabry's disease were studied by light and electron microscopy. The characteristic ceramide deposits (lamellar inclusions, myeloid‐bodies, zebra‐bodies) were found in the Leydig cells as well as in the epithelial lining of both the ductuli efferentes and the ductus of the ...

Testicular vasculitis: Implications for systemic disease

Human Pathology, 1988
Nine cases of testicular vasculitis were identified from the surgical pathology and autopsy files of the Johns Hopkins Hospital. In three cases this was the initial manifestation of polyarteritis nodosa. Two of these men presented with recurrent testicular pain and fever, with orchiectomy samples showing focal infarcts and necrotizing vasculitis.

Testicular macrophages: development and function in health and disease

Trends in Immunology, 2022
Macrophages comprise a heterogeneous immune cell population and display niche-specific phenotypes and functions in almost all organs. Testicular macrophages (TMs) perform essential immune and non-immune functions in the mammalian male gonads. Here, we discuss the most recent findings on TM ontogeny, heterogeneity, and function under steady state and ...

Testicular tumor concomitant with von Recklinghausen's disease

Medical and Pediatric Oncology, 1988
AbstractNeurofibromatosis or Von Recklinghausen's disease is an autosomal dominant disorder, associated with an excess of malignant tumors. The most common neurofibromatosis‐associated malignancies are derived from neurogenic tissues, although several malignancies that did not originate from neurogenic tissue are also described. This paper provides the

Testicular lesions in Whipple's disease.

The Journal of laboratory and clinical medicine, 1985
In two patients with Whipple's disease a variety of abnormalities were found in the testis. In both there was a thickened tunica albuginea containing macrophages filled with Schiff-positive bacilli, and both exhibited Whipple bacilli alone or in small clumps within the tunica media of the testicular arteries.

Cryptorchidism and Malignant Testicular Disease

1983
The term cryptorchidism is derived from two Greek words — kryptos, meaning hidden, and orchis, denoting testicle. — Hidden within this testis is the propensity to develop neoplasia. In this chapter the theoretical, environmental, physical, and histologic factors that interact to produce malignant disease in the testis of the cryptorchid male will be ...

Regulation of Testicular Autoimmune Disease

1993
Abstract At the beginning of this century, it was thought that the chief function of the immune system was the defense against microbes, and that immune reaction against self, or “horror autotoxicus,” was not anticipated (Ehlich, 1905). Very soon after, however, autoimmunization against spermatozoa resulted in antisperm antibodies and
