Ultrasound Features

The progress of 33 men suffering from acute epididymitis, the majority of whom were treated as hospital inpatients, was prospectively monitored in order to determine the incidence of complications, and to assess the prognostic implications of clinical and scrotal ultrasound features found at initial presentation. Serious testicular complications resulting in frank infarction, suppurative necrosis and late atrophy developed in 39%. Three factors were shown to have significant discriminant value in predicting an adverse outcome: severe degree of inflammation with induration of the spermatic cord; the presence of a coexistent bacterial urinary infection; and a uniformly reduced testicular echo pattern on the affected side as visualized on ultrasound. A more aggressive approach in addition to medical measures appears to be indicated in these patients. The rationale of early surgical decompression by epididymotomy and spermatic fasciotomy is discussed. Scrotal ultrasound should be considered as a routine investigation in the management of epididymitis.

Dependent Transport

The application of video techniques to light microscopy and the development of motility assays in reactivated or reconstituted model systems rapidly advanced our understanding of the mechanism of organelle transport and microtubule dynamics in living cells. Two microtubule-based motors have been identified that are good candidates for motors that drive organelle transport: kinesin, a plus end-directed motor, and cytoplasmic dynein, which is minus end-directed. However, the evidence that they do in fact function as organelle motors is still indirect.We are studying microtubule-dependent transport and dynamics in the giant amoeba, Reticulomyxa. This cell extends filamentous strands backed by an extensive array of microtubules along which organelles move bidirectionally at up to 20 μm/sec (Fig. 1). Following removal of the plasma membrane with a mild detergent, organelle transport can be reactivated by the addition of ATP (1). The physiological, pharmacological and biochemical characteristics show the motor to be a cytoplasmic form of dynein (2).
