Journal Title: International Journal of Contemporary Medical Research - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 3
Abstract
Introduction: The testis are specialized paired male reproductive organs affected by distinct pathological conditions which falls in the reproductive age group of third to fifth decades. Both neoplastic and non neoplastic conditions affect the normal functioning capacity of the organ and very few studies has been done regarding these conditions. Hence this study has been done in an attempt to find the frequency of these lesions in a rural population and their clinico - pathological corelation. Materials and methods: It is a retrospective and a prospective study carried out in the pathology department of a medical institute. All orchiedectomy specimens received in the department of pathology has been studied. Specimens were processed for paraffin embedding and blocking. Sections were stained with Haematoxylin and Eosin. Results: In the present study, n = 120 (4.9%) of the testicular samples were received. Out of which n = 102 (85%) were non neoplastic while n = 18 (15%) were neoplastic. Testicular atrophy was the most common condition seen in non neoplastic condition while classical seminoma leaded the neoplastic group. Most common clinical finding in non neoplastic group was swelling associated with pain while neoplastic lesions presented with swelling alone. Conclusion: Affection of a crucial organ of male reproductive system is seen in a peak age group of reproductive years and its excision is disheartening. However early clinical presentations by the patients can prevent undue excisional treatment.
