Q

What is the most common testicular tumor in children (

A

Yolk sac tumor

27
Q

What is a Schiller-Duval body and in what condition is it seen?

A

Glomerulus-like structure seen on histology of a yolk sac tumor.

28
Q

What testicular cancer can be mimic hyperthyroidism and by what mechanism dose it act?

A

Choriocarcinoma releases B-hCG, which can act like TSH hormones.

29
Q

What is a teratoma and how is it unique in males?

A

It is a malignant tumor in males that is made up of 2 or 3 embyological layers.

30
Q

What is the prognosis of a sex-cord stream tumor?

A

Good - usually benign

31
Q

What cell type is involved in a sex cord-stomal tumor if Reinke crystals are noted on histology and complications related to it?

A

Leydig cells produce DHT via 5a-reductase and will result in precocious puberty in the young and gynecomastia in older males.

32
Q

What is the result of a sertoli cell tumor?

A

Clinically silent

33
Q

How can one differentiate between a sertoli and leydig cell tumor?

A

Sertoli cells are in the stroma, while leydig cells surround the stroma.

34
Q

65 y.o. male with bilateral testicular masses. What is the most likely cause?

A

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma

35
Q

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?

A

Acute prostatitis
Chlamydia trachomatis or Neisseria gonorrhoeae
E. coli or Pseudamonas

36
Q

How can one differentiate between acute and chronic prostatitis?

A

Acute: secretions with WBC + culture +
Chronic: WBC +, Culture -, back or pelvic pain

37
Q

What is the pathophysiology of BPH?

A

Excess DHT conversion by 5a-reductase in stream cells –> hyper plastic nodules

38
Q

What are the complications of BPH?

A

difficult urination, Infection and hydronephrosis

NOT CANCER

39
Q

What does BPH cause urinary hesitancy early while adenocarcinoma causes it late?

A

DHT is made in the periurithral region

Cancer usually happens in the posterior (easier to detect early via DRE)

Q

What level of PSA is indicative of PA (2 markers)?

A

> 10, decreased % of free PSA

44
Q

What is expected on histology of a prostate adenocarcinoma?

A

Prominent Nucleoli, with invasive glands

45
Q

How is PA graded?

A

Architecture of two spots (1 - 10), 10 being worst

46
Q

What are common sites of mets in PA?

A

Lumbar spine or pelvis

47
Q

What is unique about PA mets?

A

Primary may appear small, while mets are large
