Process vaginalis is closed, and peritoneal fluid is trapped (fluid is gradually reabsorbed- no treatment needed) | Noncommunicating hydrocele |
Process vaginalis remains open; changes in intra-abdominal pressure force peritoneal fluid into process vaginalis. Probably will need surgery | Communicating hydrocele |
Failure of one or both testes to descend into the scrotal sac | cryptorchidism |
Surgery done to correct cryptorchidism | Orchiopexy |
If cryptorchidism not fixed: | Risk for reduced fertility and testicular malignancy |
Urethral opening is located along the ventral surface (underside) of the penile shaft | hypospadias |
W/ hypospadias, remember: | Do not circumcise! Foreskin is used in surgery |
Hypospadias may occur with: | Chordee |

Urethra is located on the dorsal surface (top side of the penile shaft) | Epispadias |
Epispadias may occur with: | Exstrophy of the bladder |
Extrusion of the urinary bladder to the outside of the body through a defect in the lower abd wall | Exstrophy of the bladder |
An abnormal increase in the permeability of the glomerulus to plasma protein | Nephrotic syndrome |
Labs with nephrotic syndrome: | massive proteinuria, hypoalbumineria, hyperlipidemia, edema |
Why - nephrotic syndrome more susceptible to infection? | peritonitis from migration of intestinal bacteria across the bowel wall and into the peritoneum from the edema) |
Drug used in nephrotic syndrome | Prednisone (moon face, HTN, infection) |
Inflammation of the glomeruli which most commonly follows a strep infection | Acute glomerulonephritis |
Urine in acute glomerulonephritis | a lot of blood, a little protein, cola-colored |
Which condition has HTN as problem? | Acute glomerulonephritis |
In this condition, if pt has HA, blurred vision, and is dizzy, you take the BP. | Acute glomerulonephritis - HTN encephalo. |
