A rare case of bilateral testicular torsion in a 57‐year‐old man

Cryptorchidism is a condition in which one or both testes have not passed down into the scrotal sac. It is categorized as true undescended testis in which testes are present in the normal path of descent, and as ectopic testis, in which testes are present at abnormal site. Common complications of cryptorchidism are testicular torsion, subfertility, inguinal hernia, and testicular cancer. Here we present a rare case of pantaloon hernia of obstructed indirect component and direct component with cryptorchidism.

Resection And Anastomosis

Testicular infarction/gangrene is most commonly secondary to testicular torsion. Testicular infarction complicating a strangulated inguinal hernia has been well documented in pediatric literature but found to be rare in adults as it has only been reported in only 2 cases and none of which required orchidectomy for treatment. We report a rare case of strangulated inguinoscrotal hernia with testicular gangrene following a delayed presentation in a 25 year old boy with neglected groin hernia. The patient had orchidectomy in addition to primary bowel resection and anastomosis.

Pulmonary Changes

Electron microscopy and energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis (EDXA) are found to be very useful tools for identification of etiologic agents in pneumoconiosis or interstitial pulmonary disorders. Pulmonary interstitial fibrosis and granulomatosis are frequently associated with occupational and environmental pollution. Numerous reports of pneumoconiosis in various occupations such as coal and gold miners are presented in the literature. However, there is no known documented case of pulmonary changes in workers in the sandpaper industry. This study reports a rare case of pulmonary granulomatosis containing deposits from abrasives of sandpaper diagnosed by using EDXA.
