Foreskin trapped behind the coronal sulcus after it is retracted.
Paraphimosis
Inability to pull back the foreskin
Phimosis
Inflammation of the glans penis and foreskin in uncircumcised males
Balanoposthitis
Patients with undescended testes are at an increased risk of what?
Malignancy - both in the undescended teste and the contralateral one. Most commonly seminoma
Management of cryptorchidism
Monitor for first 6 months as some will spontaneously descend. Refer for orchiplexy betwen 6-18 months
X-linked or AR disorder with initially microscopic hematuria which progresses to gross hematuria. Also with progressive sensorineural hearing loss
Alport syndrome
Complications of ARPKD if infant survives neonatal period
Hepatic complications: including portal HTN from hepatic fibrosis, cholangitis associated with dilation of bile ducts, esophageal varices and hypersplenism, thrombocytopenia and splenic sequestration
When should you repair a varicocele?
atrophy of left testes, when volume of affected testis is less than that of the unaffected testis, decreased sperm count, right sided involvement, or with chronic moderate-severe pain
Triad of undescended testis, GU anomalies, and partial aplasia or hypoplasia of abdominal musculature
Prune belly syndrome, or Eagle-Barrett syndrome

Toluene, amphotericin B, lithium and cisplatin
Affected testes lies in horizontal plane rather than vertical and sits higher
Testicular torsion
When should you refer a hydrocele for surgical evaluation?
past 1 year of age. Otherwise can observe as long as no signs of obstruction/incarceration
Symptoms that mimic a renal stone with US findings of hydronephrosis, dilation of renal pelvis, and blunting of calyces with absence of dilation of ureter
ureteropelvic junction obstruction
