Q

When should you do a pelvic lymph node dissection in patients with penile cancer?

A

only if ipsilalteral inguinal nodes have cancer (>2 nodes).

penis lymphatics do not drain directly to the pelvic nodes. Inguinal lymph node mets must be present before cancer can reach the pelvid nodes. Also, does not spread to contraleteral pelvic nodes from ILN

Q

What is the obturator reflex?

A

stimulation of the obturator nerve that causes sudden leg adduction

this can happen when you are resecting tumors of the lateral bladder wall

can prevent this by using neuromuscular blockade during surgery

Q

Metastasis from Testis Tumors:

Right testis –> ?

Left Testis –> ?

How to lymphatic metastases spread?

A

Right testis –> tumor spreads to the interaortocaval retroperitoneal nodes

Left testis –> tumor spreads to the left para-aortic retroperitoneal nodes

Lymphatic metastases can spread from RIGHT –> LEFT but they do NOT usually spread from LEFT –> RIGHT

Q

When will testis tumor mets go to the inguinal nodes?

When would it go to the pelvic nodes?

A

May also get to INGUINAL NODES if tumor invades through tunica vaginalis or scrotum

PELVIC NODES if tumor invades into the epididymus or spermatic cord

Q

What causes impaired ejaculation after RPLND?

A

Injury to post-ganglionic sympathetic nerves (T2-T4) and to the hypogastric plexus (sympathetic nerve plexus) near the origin of the IMA

-Can use modified RPLND template or nerve sparing surgery to avoid this if this is clinically possible

19
Q

what is unique about the cremasteric muscle

A

striated and innervated by the genital brance of the genitofemoral nerve to elevate the testis

20
Q

what is the gubernaculum, what does it do? What does it become later in development?

A

paired organ, embryonic strucure that attaches to the caudal end of the gonads (Testis/ovaries) and assists in their descent

Testes eventually pulled through inguinal canal

In males it becomes a scrotal ligament (secures testis to inferior scrotum)

In females it becomes with ovarian ligament and the round ligament

21
Q

Bell Clapper Deformity

A

Failure of the normal posterior anchoring of the gubernaculum, epididymus and testis.

Leaves testis free to swing and rotate within the tunica vaginalis of the scrutum like the gong (clapper) insude of a BELL

22
Q

Layers of the testis

A
  1. Tunica vaginalis (parietal layer, cavity, visceral layer)
  2. Capsule (tunica albuginea)
  3. Seminiferous tubule
23
Q

pathway of sperm from seminiferous tubule

A

seminiferous tubule –> straight tubule –> rete testis –> efferrent ductules –> head of epididymus –> body –> tail of epididymus –> vas deferens

24
Q

Layers of the abdominal wall (1-8)

A
  1. skin
  2. subcutaneous tissue (fat)
  3. external oblique
  4. Internal oblique
  5. Fascia of both superficial and deep surfaces of the internal oblique muscle
  6. Transversus abdominis
  7. Transversalis fascia
  8. Peritoneum
25
Q

What is Buck’s fascia? What does it cover? Where does it anchor?

A

aka deep fascia of the penis (immedietly superficial to the tunica albuginea)

covers:

  1. three erectile bodies of the penis (corpus spongiousum and two corpora cavernosa).
  2. On dorsal aspect , branches of the dorsal nerve, deep dorsal vein and paired dorsal arteries are contained in Buck’s.
  3. encloses ischiocavernosus, bulbospongiousus muscles
  4. Contains each crus of the corpora cavernosa and bulb of corpus spongiousum
  5. Adheres all these structures to the PUBIS, ISCHIUM, and UROGENITAL DIAPHRAGM

continuous with the EXTERNAL SPERMATIC FASCIA

splits to envelop corpus spongiosum

26
Q

What is the verumontanum?

A

aka seminal colliculus

part of prostatic urethra where ejaculatory ducts (seminal vesicle + vas deferens) enter

important anatomic landmark - a distinct median elevation of urothelium

27
Q

pathophys of calcium oxalate stone

A

form at calcium phosphate nidus concretion at renal papilla –> this erodes through urothelium in the renal papilla and forms a nidus for the calcium oxalate deposition when it is exposed to urine

28
Q

what makes calcium oxalate stones worse?

A
  1. dehydration
  2. hypercalciuria
  3. hperoxaluria (e.g. crohn’s)
  4. hypernatrituria
  5. hypocitraturia
  6. hyperuricosuria
29
Q

Causes of uric acid stones

A
  1. ACIDIC URINE
  2. Hyperuricosuria (gout)
  3. Insulin resistance, DM, Lesch-Nyhan syndrome
  4. Chemotherapy (lymphoma/leukemia)
30
Q

Causes of struvite stones

A
  1. urease producing organisms (proteus, klebsiella, enterobacter, pseudomonas) –> ALKALINE URINE
31
Q

Causes of calcium phosphate stones?

A
  1. underlying metabolic disorder (RTA, primary hyper PTH, medullary sponge kidney)
  2. ALKALINE URINE
32
Q

Causes of cystine stones

A

AR problem with cystine transport

more soluble in very high pH (9.6), but can’t alkalinize it that high for tx.

Q

Arterial blood supply to the bladder

A

Bladder is supplied by the SUPERIOR and INFERIOR VESICAL arteries (branches of the ANTERIOR trunk of the INTERNAL ILIAC artery)

39
Q

Venous supply to bladder and lymph drainage

A

bladder is drained from a plexus on the infero-lateral surface of the bladder –> end in INTERNAL ILIAC VEIN

Lymph –> EXTERNAL ILIAC NODES

  2. Submucosa
  3. Detrusor Muscle
  4. Adventitia and Perivesicular fat
