Semen quality in patients with testicular cancer is associated with age and with greatly elevated levels of beta human chorionic gonadotropin

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Poor semen quality is a well‐known feature in patients with testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) at the time of diagnosis but the underlying biological reasons are incompletely understood. Objectives This study aimed to identify GCT‐specific clinical factors that are involved with poor semen quality in GCT patients.

Cryptorchidism: Novel genetic insights into CCDC149 mutations

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Cryptorchidism, characterized by the failure of one or both testes to descend into the scrotum, is a common congenital condition that can lead to infertility and increased risk of testicular cancer. CCDC149, a coiled‐coil domain‐containing protein, has been implicated in various developmental processes, but its role in the male ...

The Testicular Cancer Consortium (TECAC): Filling Knowledge Gaps in the Genetic Etiology of Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The Testicular Cancer Consortium (TECAC) was established in 2012 and is comprised of researchers from over 25 centers in Europe and North America. TECAC's overarching goal is to investigate the genetic susceptibility of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) to better understand their biology, impact prevention strategies, and inform ...

Incidence of Gonadal and Extragonadal Germ Cell Tumours in Patients With Klinefelter Syndrome

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter's syndrome (KS; 47, XXY) is associated with an altered risk profile for malignancies compared with non‐KS males. In particular, several reports have noted a striking association between KS and extragonadal germ cell tumours (EGCTs), especially in the mediastinum, whereas the risk of testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs ...

Use of the processes vaginalis: A new technique for reinforcing the neourethra in hypospadias associated with undescended testis

Indian Journal of Urology, 2009
Context: The incidence of undescended testis (UDT) along with hypospadias varies from 6 to 31%. The simultaneous repair of UDT and hypospadias is rarely done.

Recurrent Constellations of Embryonic Malformations (RCEM): Teratogenicity Linked to Transient Hypoxia and Hormone Pregnancy Tests Agrees With RCEM and Suggest a Reactive Oxygen Species Pathogenesis

Birth Defects Research, Volume 118, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Background No consistent genetic etiology has been found for a group of six different conditions in humans with multiple malformations called “recurrent constellations of embryonic malformations” (RCEM). Recent studies indicate hypoxia/reoxygenation and generation Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) as an underlying mechanism for RCEM with the ...

AMHR2 mutation in persistent Müllerian duct syndrome: A case of transverse testicular ectopia

UroPrecision, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 64-68, March 2026.
Abstract Backgroud Persistent Müllerian duct syndrome (PMDS) is a rare condition characterized by the persistence of Müllerian duct structures in genotypic and phenotypic males. Case Presentation We present the case of a 4‐month‐old male with PMDS who presented with transverse testicular ectopia. The patient underwent diagnostic laparoscopic orchiopexy
