Serum HCG(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 9th ed., p. 979
This STD is a chronic, ulcerative disease caused by certain strains of C. trachomatis, which presents with nonspecific urethritis, papular or ulcerative lesions involving the lower genitalia, regional adenopathy, or an anorectal syndrome.
Lymphogranuloma venereum (LGV) (TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 707

Inner (central and transitional) region of the prostate(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 696
Most important cause of firm, painless enlargement of the testis.
Testicular neoplasms(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 690
Most common location of prostate cancer
Posterior location, peripheral zone of the gland(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 9th ed., p. 985
A chronic venereal infection caused by the spirochete Treponema pallidum, whose fundamental microscopic lesion is a proliferative endarteritis and an accompanying inflammatory infiltrate rich in plasma cells.
Syphilis(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 702
Ureteral narrowing or obstruction characterized by fibrotic proliferative inflammatory process encasing retroperitoneal structures and causing hydronephrosis
Sclerosing Retroperitotneal Fibrosis(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 9th ed., p 961
Urothelial carcinoma associated with gain of function FGFR3 and HRAS mutation.
Non-invasive low-grade urothelial carcinoma(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 9th ed., p. 968
It is characterized by formation of large, fairly discrete nodules in the periurethral region of the prostate. The most common benign prostatic disease in men older than age 50 years.
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or Nodular Hyperplasia(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 9th ed., p. 982
An abnormal opening of the urethra along the ventral aspect of the penis.
Hypospadias(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 687
The most common testicular tumor in men agest 15-34 years old
Germ Cell tumor(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 9th ed., p. 975
Presents as a testicular mass. These neoplasm appear as firm, small nodules with a homogeneous gray-white to yellow cut surface. Tumor cell are arranged in distinctive trabeculae and form cordlike structures and tubules.
Sertoli cell tumors(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 9th ed., p. 980
What do you call the structures resembling endodermal sinuses that may be seen in Yolk Sac Tumor?
Schiller Duval Bodies (TOPNOTCH)
Lymphatic spread is common to all forms of testicular tumors. Which group of nodes are initially involved?
Retroperitoneal para-aortic nodes(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 9th ed., p. 979
Approximately 70% of prostate carcinoma will arise in what zone of the gland?
Peripheral zone ( posterior location) (TOPNOTCH)
Bowen disease which presents as an erythematous patch on the glans penis.
Erythroplasia of Queyrat(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 688
Morphology: appear as minute, disseminated abscesses or diffuse edema, congestion, and boggy suppuration of the entire prostate
Acute prostatitis (TOPNOTCH)
Inflammatory lesion that presents as a small, red, painful mass about the external urethral meatus, consisting of inflamed granulation tissue covered by friable mucosa which may ulcerate and bleed with the slightest trauma, typically in older females.
Urethral caruncle(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 9th ed., p. 969
Occurs in young, sexually active males, histologically identical to Bowen disease. Presents with multiple reddish brown papules on the glans and is most often transient, with rare progression to carcinoma in immunocompetent patients.
Bowenoid papulosis (TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 688
Characterized by variable amount of lymphoid infiltrate, evidence of glandular injury, and, frequently, concomitant acute inflammatory changes of the prostate.
Chronic prostatitis (TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 695
Represents failure of testicular descent into the scrotum which involves the right testis more commonly than the left. Causes increased risk of sterility and development of testicular cancer.
Cryptorchidism(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 690
Within how many hours should the testes be explored surgically and untwisted manually so the testes will be viable after a testicular torsion?
Within 6 hours(TOPNOTCH)
A 25 year old develops bilateral parotitis and fever. He was never vaccinated with MMR. A few days later, he develops bilateral testicular pain and swelling. This complication (A) is more common in children (B) occurs in 80% of adult males (C) consists of a predominantly lymphoplasmacytic inflammatory infiltrate (D) all of the above are true
consists of a predominantly lymphoplasmacytic infiltrate (A- rare in children, B - 20% in adults) (TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th ed., p 690
