What is hypospadias
Urethra opens on bottom of penis (ventral - bottom = ventral when erect)
What is epispadias
Urethra opens on top of penis (dorsal)
Complications of untreated hypo/epispadias
Obstruction/UTI
Problems ejaculating -> sterile
What is phimosis? Cause? Complications?
Foreskin too small to tract over glans
Cause: after repeated infections -> scar
↑s risk for infection
What is paraphimosis?
Foreskin gets stuck retracted
PAIN
Medical emergency - causes urine retention
What is balanoposthitis? Cause/pt pop?
Glans + foreskin = infected Uncircumcised Causes: - Candida - Anaerobics - Gardnerella
What is condyloma acuminatum? Cause?
Benign neoplasm = genital warts
Aka NOT going to progress to cancer
HPV 6 + 11
Histo condyloma acuminatum
Poly/finger like shapes - almost vili like
Lined by squamous epi
Nuclei = big w/ clear space (viral accum)
What is squamous carcinoma in situ of the penis? Benign vs malignant? Cause? Treat?
Malignant change @ epithelium NO invasion (in situ) Cause = HPV 16 Surgically remove w/ clear margins
Cause + pt pop for penis squamous cell cancer. Histo + most common site for mets
SCC - see keratin invading on histo
Uncircumcised middle aged men
HPV 16 + 18
Met to inguinal + iliac LNs
What are the 3 things that can cause inflammation of the prostate - think generally
Bacteria - bacterial prostatitis Abacterial Granulomatous 1. Post-BCG treatment of bladder cancer 2. Fungal 3. TB
Describe normal prostate histo
Glands w/ 2 layers epithelium lining
SM surrounds glands
Histo changes in BPH
Hyperplasia prostate stroma + SM -> into nodules
What is the most common type of prostate cancer?
Adenocarcinoma
3 features of prostate adenocarcinoma histo
- Small glands infiltrate normal tissue
- Malignant epi - glands have only 1 layer epi
- Large nuclei + prominent nucleoli
What is prostatic intraepi neoplasia?
“Adenocarcinoma precursor”
Aka abnormalities in normal glands
vs adenocarcinoma = entire glands are abnormal
Do you treat PIN?
Nah - freq repeat biopsies for progression check
TESTQ: what is the basis of grading prostate cancer? (Gleason score)
ARCHITECTURE NOT nuclei (normal grading criteria)
Where will prostate adenocarcinoma met to?
Inguinal LN
BONE - L vertebrae: look for sclerotic nodules within the vertebrae
Options to treat prostate carcinoma
Surg - remove it
Radiotherapy - brachy or external beam
Hormonal
Chemo for mets
What is cryptorchidism? Treat?
Undescended testicles
If don’t descend on own before 2, surgery to prevent infertility + cancer
Describe normal testicle histo
Seminiferous tubules - germ cells at base, prolif as move into lumen as mature sperm
Sertoli cells here = nurturing
Leydig cells between tubules to provide androgens
What inflammatory diseases of the testes?
Epididymo-orchitis: acute vs tuberculous (will see granulomas in the testes!)
What is testicular torsion? Pt pop
Testes twist in sac - collapse the thin walled vein Blood still entering through the artery Painful + hemorrhagic infarct EMERGENCY Peaks during 1 yo + puberty
