Patient's question:
Treatment and Effect: 3 years ago, I forgot to check the situation carefully! What kind of assistance do you need: Understanding the attention issues, causes of this disease, and your views on this disease....Doctor's answer:
It is a rare testicular disease, usually discovered incidentally during a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination of the scrotum. It is often accompanied by various clinical manifestations, including cryptorchidism, congenital testicular dysgenesis syndrome, male pseudohermaphroditism and infertility, and pulmonary microlithiasis, central nervous system microlithiasis, etc. There have been reports suggesting that testicular microlithiasis is associated with testicular tumors, varicocele, epididymitis, testicular trauma, testicular torsion, and primary testicular tumors. The incidence of testicular microlithiasis in the general population has not been reported, with a detection rate of 0.5% in pediatric autopsies. Due to the high risk of developing primary testicular tumors in individuals with testicular microlithiasis, it is important to teach children self-examination and regular MRI follow-up. The interval for MRI follow-up has not been definitively established, but generally, children with testicular microlithiasis undergo MRI examinations every 6–12 months.Medical Advice: Testicular microlithiasis is a rare testicular disease, usually discovered incidentally during a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination of the scrotum.
