Which plays the main role in the development of testicular tumor?
A) injury
B) testicular torsion
C) retentio testis (cryptorchidism)
D) genetic predisposition

ANSWER
C) retentio testis (cryptorchidism)
EXPLANATION
The only proven risk factor in the development of testicular cancer is cryptorchism. (In this case, the testicular cancer is 10 to 20 times more common). The role of injury, testicular torsion, genetic predisposition has not been proven.

In which typical disease complains the patient pain when touching his scrotum?
A) testicular tumor
B) epididymitis
C) hydrocele
D) varicocele

ANSWER
B) epididymitis
EXPLANATION
In the case of epididymitis, the patient's epididymides and testicles are enlarged, and feels painful to touch. In case of testicular cancer, a painless nodule or the painless enlargement of the testis can be detected. Varicocele can cause dragging-like or aching pain within the scrotum, enlarged veins are palpable or to be seen, and does not feel painful when touched. The hydrocele is a transparent, painless, and fluctuating fluid can be detected.

The bladder tumor located around the internal orifice can block the orifice or infiltrate the back tract of urethra. Bladder stones embedded in the orifice or in the back track of urethra may also cause complete retention. During acute prostatitis, the inflamed, enlarged prostate may compress the prostatic urethra completely. In case of bladder paralysis, the detrusor muscle does not work, so it can not empty the urine.

What tests can detect prostate cancer?
1) PSA
2) DRE (digital rectal examination)
3) biopsy
4) abdominal CT
A) the 1st, 2nd and 3rd answers are correct
B) the 1st and 3rd answers are correct
C) the 2nd and 4th answers are correct
D) only the 4th answer is correct
E) all of the answers are correct

ANSWER
A) the 1st, 2nd and 3rd answers are correct
EXPLANATION
PSA (prostate-specific antigen) is prostate and non-prostatic cancer specific. Its normal level is 0 to 4 ng / ml, it is uncertain at 4-10 ng / ml, it is more likely tumor if it is more than 10 ng / ml. With the RDE examination the cartilage- hard nodule raises the suspicion of malignant prostate disease, but a certain diagnosis can only be established based on histology. In advanced case abdominal CT only shows the larger lymph nodes, but for the finer structure TRUS (transrectal ultrasound) is needed, but it is not as specific as RDV and PSA together. So the first step is therefore a rectal examination and after palpating a suspecious finding PSA level should be measured. (2 days intermission should be between the blood test and the RDE, because palpation affects the PSA level). Prostate biopsy is always mandatory in case of suspected prostate cancer.

Ultrasound
1) is better than intravenous urography to detect kidney tumors
2) is better than intravenous urography to detect urothelial tumor
3) is better than CT to detect prostate diseases
4) in the urological ultrasound examinations the 15000-20000 Mhz frequency is used
A) the 1st, 2nd and 3rd answers are correct
B) the 1st and 3rd answers are correct
C) the 2nd and 4th answers are correct
D) only the 4th answer is correct
E) all of the answers are correct

ANSWER
B) the 1st and 3rd answers are correct
EXPLANATION
Intravenous urography shows the urinary system, which is more informative than US in urothelial tumors. To detect changes in parenchyma (kidney tumor), US is much better. TRUS is considerably cheaper than CT but provides less information about the prostate. Urological transducers have a frequency of 3 to 7 MHz.

The testicular ultrasound examination is good to detect:
1) infertility
2) testicular tumor
3) azoospermia
4) orchidoepididymitis
A) the 1st, 2nd and 3rd answers are correct
B) the 1st and 3rd answers are correct
C) the 2nd and 4th answers are correct
D) only the 4th answer is correct
E) all of the answers are correct

ANSWER
C) the 2nd and 4th answers are correct
EXPLANATION
Infertility and azoospermia is a complex andrological diagnosis, which is based on physical examination; US alone is not enough. It is absolutely necessary to perform a microscopic examination of the ejaculate. Other procedures like microbiological, diagnostic, surgical, radiological, biochemical, genetic, endocrinological, examinations are necessary in order to find the cause. In case of orchiepididymitis, an inhomogeneous echotexture can be found in the testicles. In a testicular tumor an inhomogenous echotexture can be observed in part or in the whole testicle.

In the Bricker bladder, ureter is implanted in a short ileum segment, the other end of the intestinal tract is determined to the abdominal wall. These two methods are not continental urinary tract creating methods, because the urine is constantly flowing away, patients should wear urostomy bags. Orthotopic bladder formation is a bladder replacement from an isolated intestinal tract, in which case the bladder is sewn with the original urethra. The Mainz II. pouch is actually a low pressure, continental urine reservoir, in which case the ureter is implanted into the detubularized intestinal segment of the sigma.

If the urine flows through the small intestine constant bacteruria will be detected, so patients will have hyperchloremic acidosis.
A) both the statement and the explanation are true and a causal relationship exists between them;
B) both the statement and the explanation are true but there is no causal relationship between them;
C) the statement is true, but the explanation is false;
D) the statement is false, but the explanation itself is true
E) both the statement and the explanation are false

ANSWER
D) the statement is false, but the explanation itself is true
EXPLANATION
In the case of small bowel bladder replacement - if secondary superficial infection has not occurred - urine is not bacteriuretic. After bladder replacement with intestinal segregation, hyperchloraemic acidosis is always present. This is due to the fact that chloride and ammonium ion are absorbed from the intestine and due to the protons that are removed from the ammonium ion in the liver, the pH level of the blood is shifted in the acidic direction.

Before radical prostatectomy (PSA under 10 ng/ml) regional lymph node dissection should be performed, because the result influences the possibly occurring adjuvant therapy.
A) both the statement and the explanation are true and a causal relationship exists between them;
B) both the statement and the explanation are true but there is no causal relationship between them;
C) the statement is true, but the explanation is false;
D) the statement is false, but the explanation itself is true
E) both the statement and the explanation are false

ANSWER
A) both the statement and the explanation are true and a causal relationship exists between them;
EXPLANATION
Radical prostatectomy means the „en bloc" removal of the prostate and the seminal vesicles. This surgery is indicated only at an early stage (prostate-restricted tumor), so it can not be performed in lymph node positivity. The lymph nodes are removed before surgery or laparoscopically in the first part of the operation and if the frozen section is positive, prostate removal can not be performed.

By performing the TRUS procedure an increased, non homogenic prostate is found. The capsule is ruptured. The PSA level is 20 ng/ml. The DRE shows a large, not sensitive prostate with hard, uneven surface. What is the most likely diagnosis?
A 65-year-old man comes to the clinic with a complaint of frequent urination. He also complains about low back and leg pain. There is no blood in the urine, urination is not painful, comes in weak yellow stream.
A) PCA (prostate cancer)
B) BPH (Benign prostatic hyperplasia)
C) chronic prostatitis
D) acute prostatitis

ANSWER
A) PCA (prostate cancer)
EXPLANATION
The hard, uneven prostate, the inhomogeneous prostate structure detected with elevated PSA level and with TRUS, and the broken capsule, refer to prostate cancer. BPH: palpation found: glandular or muscle like prostate. US test: the capsule is intact although the PSA may have elevated but is below 10 ng / ml. Prostatitis chronica: sensitive, stuffed founds in the prostate, US may exhibit inhomogeneity, possibly echodense masses in the prostate, PSA may be moderately elevated. Acute prostatitis: patient has high fever, a very sensitive, dough-sensitive, enlarged prostate.

D) the 1st, 3rd and 5th answers are correct
E) the 2nd, 3rd and 4th answers are correct

ANSWER
E) the 2nd, 3rd and 4th answers are correct
EXPLANATION
A T3c, N1, M1 stage prostate cancer is a late metastatic carcinoma, so only palliative treatment is possible. This is a method of suspending androgenic activity, which can be achieved by surgical or pharmacological castration (reduction of androgenic hormone levels), antiandrogens (receptor inhibition). Radical prostatectomy can only be performed in early stage prostate cancer, as it is already late.
