A

testicular cancer: **Yolk sac tumor**

Schiller-Duval bodies= glomerulus-like structure;

perivascular layers: flattened tumor cells–> cystic space –> tumor cells–> central vessel

It represents an attempt to form yolk sacs

dx: chronic cystitis

Michaelis-Gutmann bodies= Ca/Fe deposition inside macrophages/lysosomes

24

A

testicular torsion

get to surgery ASAP

risk factors: **smoking (PAH); naphthylamine, azo dyes/aryl amines (hairdressers), long-term Analgesics/Cyclophosphamide/phenacetin, old age, irradiation

26
Q

urinary pain and hematuria after swimming in Egypt/Sudan

A
