25
What is a unique complication of embryonal carcinoma when exposed to chemotherapy?
It may differentiate into another kind of tumor.
26
What is the most common testicular tumor in children (
Yolk sac tumor
27
What is a Schiller-Duval body and in what condition is it seen?
Glomerulus-like structure seen on histology of a yolk sac tumor.
28
What testicular cancer can be mimic hyperthyroidism and by what mechanism dose it act?
Choriocarcinoma releases B-hCG, which can act like TSH hormones.
29
What is a teratoma and how is it unique in males?
It is a malignant tumor in males that is made up of 2 or 3 embyological layers.
30
What is the prognosis of a sex-cord stream tumor?
Good - usually benign
31
What cell type is involved in a sex cord-stomal tumor if Reinke crystals are noted on histology and complications related to it?
Leydig cells produce DHT via 5a-reductase and will result in precocious puberty in the young and gynecomastia in older males.
32
What is the result of a sertoli cell tumor?
Clinically silent
33
How can one differentiate between a sertoli and leydig cell tumor?
Sertoli cells are in the stroma, while leydig cells surround the stroma.
34
65 y.o. male with bilateral testicular masses. What is the most likely cause?
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
35
Diagnosis and causal organism of a 24 year old sexually promiscuous male with tender and boggy prostate, fevers, and chills? What if it is a 60 year old male?
Acute prostatitis Chlamydia trachomatis or Neisseria gonorrhoeae E. coli or Pseudamonas
36
How can one differentiate between acute and chronic prostatitis?
Acute: secretions with WBC + culture + Chronic: WBC +, Culture -, back or pelvic pain
37
What is the pathophysiology of BPH?
Excess DHT conversion by 5a-reductase in stream cells --> hyper plastic nodules
38
What are the complications of BPH?
difficult urination, Infection and hydronephrosis | NOT CANCER
39
What does BPH cause urinary hesitancy early while adenocarcinoma causes it late?
DHT is made in the periurithral region | Cancer usually happens in the posterior (easier to detect early via DRE)
40
What are the PSA levels in BPH?
41
What is the most common cancer in men?

What level of PSA is indicative of PA (2 markers)?
> 10, decreased % of free PSA
44
What is expected on histology of a prostate adenocarcinoma?

45
How is PA graded?
Architecture of two spots (1 - 10), 10 being worst
46
What are common sites of mets in PA?
Lumbar spine or pelvis
47
What is unique about PA mets?
Primary may appear small, while mets are large

Urethral obstruction
49
What are the complications a/w bladder diverticula?

50
What is the cause of exstrophy?
Failure of proper development of the abdominal wall
51
What is the underlying reason for a kid who pees out of his belly button?
Vesicoureteral reflux: fistula forms between the bladder and umbilicus due to a failure of the urachal to obliterate during development
