  • Title: Use of ultrasonography to diagnose Sertoli cell neoplasia and cryptorchidism in a dog.
    Author: Eilts BE, Pechman RD, Hedlund CS, Kreeger JM.
    Journal: J Am Vet Med Assoc; 1988 Feb 15; 192(4):533-4. PubMed ID: 2897351.
    Abstract:
    Unilateral cryptorchidism and Sertoli cell tumor in the descended testis were provisionally diagnosed by use of ultrasonography in a 7-year-old Keeshond. The left testis was thought to have degenerated, but ultrasonography of the scrotum did not reveal evidence of testicular or epididymal tissue. The contralateral testis contained a hypoechoic mass believed to be a testicular tumor. Surgery and histopathologic findings confirmed the diagnosis. Ultrasonography of the scrotum and its contents should be considered for use in animals with suspected testicular neoplasia and/or degeneration.
