Crossed Ectopia

Crossed testicular ectopia (CTE) is a rare anomaly, characterized by migration of one testis towards the opposite inguinal canal. Presented here is a case of crossed ectopia of the right testis, treated by extraperitoneal transposition of the gonad and right orchiopexy. Embriology and surgical findings suggest that CTE is a common consequence of many unclear ethiologic factors, specially mechanical ones, and can be associated with Muller duct persistence. Review of literature suggests a classification of CTE into 3 types: I - associated with inguinal hernia alone; II - associated with persistent mullerian remnants; III - associated with other anomalies without mullerian remnants. Treatment includes transeptal orchiopexy or extraperitoneal transposition of the testis, research for mullerian remnants and other anomalies, and long term postoperative follow-up, due to the risk of becoming malignant.

Introduction: The surgery of hernial disease of abdominal wall and especially of the inguinofemoral hernia has increase but in fact its prevalence is unknown. The objective of present study was to assess the result of surgical treatment of the inguinofemoral region hernia in third-age patients seen in the "Dr. Enrique Cabrera" Teaching General Hospital. Methods: A study was conducted in 2186 third-age patients operated on of inguinofemoral hernia from January, 2000 to December, 2020 in the above mentioned hospital. In all cases patients had the alternative to be operated on in ambulatory way or with a short hospital stay. Also, were included the patients operated on as an urgency. From the patients operated on in an elective way were excluded those suffering of associated, cardiopulmonary or thromboembolic ASA-III type diseases (classification of the American Society of Anesthesiology). Results: The great incidence of the inguinal hernia was found in ages from 60-69 years (59,3%). The indirect right inguinal hernia was the more frequent. The Desarda's anatomical surgical technique was the more applied one in the inguinal hernia and theLichtenstein's prosthetic technique with the 32% was the following in frequency. There were 20 relapses (0,9%). Local anesthesia was applied in the 75,4% of patients, in ambulatory way in the 76,4%. The total of complications was of 78 (7,1%). Conclusions: The surgical treatment of inguinofemoral hernias, ambulatory or with a short hospital stay is a suitable procedure in third-age patients since to increase the comfort of patients, to decrease the hospital infection risk, to reduce the waiting lists and the hospital costs.

Injury Causes

Marma is a vital point of the body where trauma or injury may cause a various range of signs and symptoms from Ruja (pain) to even death. Ayurvedic Acharya’s has explained 107 Marma” that are present in the anterior and posterior aspect of the human body. Depending upon the effect of injury on Marma is five types like Sadhyo pranhara, Kalantara pranhara, Vishlyaghna, Vaikalykara & Rujakara Marma. Out of them, Vaikalykar Marma are the points where an injury causes structural or functional deformity. Another type of classification of Marma has also been made as Mamsa (muscle) marma, Sira (artery/vein) marma, Snayu (ligament) marma, Asthi (bone) marma and Sandhi (joint) marma. The Vitap Marma is placed under the Snayu Marma by Acharya Sushrut and Sira Marma by Acharya Vaghbhata. Vitap Marma is situated between Vankshan (Groin) and Vrishna (Testes) and the Viddha lakshan (symptoms of trauma) is Shandata (impotency) and Alpashukrata (oligospermia). The struc- ture present at this point is the inguinal canal. The clinical importance of the inguinal canal is related to the inguinal hernia. Direct or indirect Injury at this particular point affects the physiology of the reproductive system and may cause sterility, which is similar to Viddha lakshan of Vitap marma as described by Sushrut.

We have investigated the spectrograms (dispersion: 8Å/mm) in the photographic infrared region fromλ7500 toλ9000 of some carbon stars obtained by the coudé spectrograph of the 74-inch reflector attached to the Okayama Astrophysical Observatory. The names of the stars investigated are listed in Table 1.

Good Agreement

For years the separation of carcinoma and sarcoma and the subclassification of sarcomas has been based on the appearance of the tumor cells and their microscopic growth pattern and information derived from certain histochemical and special stains. Although this method of study has produced good agreement among pathologists in the separation of carcinoma from sarcoma, it has given less uniform results in the subclassification of sarcomas. There remain examples of neoplasms of different histogenesis, the classification of which is questionable because of similar cytologic and growth patterns at the light microscopic level; i.e. amelanotic melanoma versus carcinoma and occasionally sarcoma, sarcomas with an epithelial pattern of growth simulating carcinoma, histologically similar mesenchymal tumors of different histogenesis (histiocytoma versus rhabdomyosarcoma, lytic osteogenic sarcoma versus rhabdomyosarcoma), and myxomatous mesenchymal tumors of diverse histogenesis (myxoid rhabdo and liposarcomas, cardiac myxoma, myxoid neurofibroma, etc.)
