Testicular Vein thrombosis incidence of recurrent venous thromboembolism and survival
European Journal of Haematology, 2018Co-Authors: Charles J Lenz, Rayya A Saadiq, Benjamin Simmons, Kevin P Cohoon, Robert D Mcbane, Paul R Daniels, Dawid Janczak, Malgorzata Mimier, Ana I Casanegra, Waldemar E WysokinskiAbstract:Purpose Testicular Vein thrombosis (TVT) etiology, recurrence, and survival were compared with lower extremity deep Vein thrombosis (DVT) in order to determine whether treatment guidelines for DVT could be applied to TVT. Patients and methods An inception cohort of patients with confirmed TVT (January 1995-October 2015) was compared to a control group of patients with lower extremity DVT matched by age, gender, and diagnosis date. Results Thirty-nine men with TVT were identified; 15 (38%) with isolated TVT. Left Testicular Vein was affected in 77% patients; there were no cases of bilateral TVT. Cancer was over twofold more common in TVT patients (59% vs 28%, P = .01). Most cancers (78%) involved organs in proximity to the Testicular Vein. Although TVT patients were less frequently treated with anticoagulants (49% vs 97%, P = .0001), recurrence rates were similar to DVT group (TVT 4.2 vs DVT 1.1 per 100 patient-years, P = .11). Despite higher cancer prevalence, survival rates were similar between groups (31% vs 28%; P = .34). Major bleeding events were rare (one patient per group). Conclusions Identifying TVT should prompt a search for a regional malignancy. Despite the high cancer prevalence and low utilization of anticoagulants, recurrent venous thrombosis and mortality rates are similar to DVT patients.

the role of color doppler ultrasound in prediction of the outcome of microsurgical subinguinal varicocelectomy
The Journal of Urology, 2006Co-Authors: Alayman HusseinAbstract:Purpose: Overdiagnosis and undertreatment of varicocele may be responsible for the poor outcome of varicocelectomy. In this study we used color Doppler ultrasound for accurate diagnosis and grading of varicocele, and for predicting the outcome of microsurgical subinguinal varicocelectomy.Materials and Methods: A total of 104 patients undergoing microsurgical subinguinal varicocelectomy for treatment of infertility were included in this study. Patients were evaluated with routine history, physical examination, semen analysis, hormonal assessment and scrotal ultrasound, and Doppler. After varicocelectomy improvement index in sperm concentration was calculated by dividing the difference between the postoperative and preoperative sperm concentration by the preoperative sperm concentration. Improvement index greater than 0.5 is considered a good outcome. Statistical analysis was done to study the correlation between microsurgical varicocelectomy outcome and Testicular Vein diameter at the inferior pole of the ...

anomalous drainage of the right Testicular Vein a case report 543 4
The FASEB Journal, 2014Co-Authors: Delia Elena Zahoi, Alexandra Enache, Dorina Sztika, Flavia Baderca, Ecaterina DaescuAbstract:Typically, the right Testicular Vein drains blood into the inferior vena cava, while the left Testicular Veins drains into the left renal Vein. However, variations in the paths of the Testicular Veins do occur. Such variations can influence Testicular drainage and even lead to varicocele, one of the causes of male infertility. During a routine dissection conducted within the Department of Anatomy and Embryology’s laboratory, an anomalous path of the right Testicular Vein was observed on the cadaver of a 60-year old. The person’s death had been the result of an unrelated cause. The anomaly discovered was that both the left and right Testicular Veins drained into the left renal Vein. The right Testicular Vein ascended diagonally, crossed in front of the inferior vena cava and joined the lower side of the left renal Vein, at an almost 90 degree angle and at a distance of 0.3cm from the inferior vena cava. The left Testicular Vein joined the left renal Vein on the same side, but 4cm further away from the vena...

Multiple vascular anomalies involving Testicular, suprarenal arteries and lumbar Veins
North American Journal of Medical Sciences, 2012Co-Authors: P Jyothsna, Somayaji, L. S. AshwiniAbstract:Testicular arteries arise from the abdominal aorta and the inferior suprarenal artery from the renal artery. There are reports about variant origin and course of these arteries. Accessory Testicular artery is also a common finding but its providing origin to inferior suprarenal artery is an important observation. During a routine dissection of abdomen of approximately 55-year-old male cadaver, unique vascular abnormality was observed. On the left side, a common arterial trunk originating from abdominal aorta immediately branched to give rise to superior Testicular and inferior suprarenal arteries, the former after a short course hooked by the left suprarenal Vein. In addition, the left suprarenal Vein, second left lumbar Vein, and left Testicular Vein joined to form a common trunk which drained into the left renal Vein. A sound knowledge of vascular variations in relation to the kidney and suprarenal gland is important to surgeons dissecting the abdominal cavity.
