Neonatal testicular tumors are rare and should be considered in the differential diagnosis of newborn scrotal masses. Juvenile granulosa cell tumor (JGCT) accounts for about 5% of all prepubertal testis tumors. As a benign neoplasm, radical orchiectomy is sufficient for treatment. We report a case of a newborn with a prenatal diagnosis of scrotal mass. After surgery, the histological diagnosis was juvenile granulosa cell tumor. To date the patient is healthy.

Mutrashmari (Urolithiasis) is one of the most common disorders of the Mutravaha srotas (Urinary system). In the contemporary medical science, it is correlated with urolithiasis. It is a highly prevalent condition with a high recurrence rate that has a large impact on the quality of life of those affected. Paediatric urolithiasis is an important encountered kidney disorder in clinical practice. A 9-year-old patient approached the OPD with complaints of pain abdomen associated with nausea, vomiting and burning micturition. On interrogation, patient's parents gave the history of using borewell water for consumption. Ultrasound scan of the abdomen revealed the renal calculi measuring 6 mm in the vesico ureteric junction causing hydronephrosis and another 3.5 mm calculus in the upper pole of the right Kidney. It was diagnosed as vataaja ashmari (Type of Renal calculi) based on signs and symptoms and investigational reports. Most of the renal calculi in children comprise of either calcium oxalate or calcium phosphate. Based on Ayurvedic line of management, the patient was administered Chandraprabhavati, Gokshuradi guggulu and a polyherbal syrup containing diuretics. The calculi were expelled out within 7 days after the administration of oral Ayurvedic medicines relieving great pain and suffering. An attempt has been made to present the Ayurvedic management of mutrashmari (Urolithiasis) in paediatric age with successful emergency pain management. This case study intends to instill confidence among Ayurvedic physicians for the management of mutrashmari (Urolithiasis) by Ayurvedic means involving noninvasive procedure, avoiding surgical intervention and being cost effective.

“…JGCT is the most common subtype of sex cord-stromal tumor diagnosed in the male neonatal population and is sometimes associated with intraabdominal testes, sex chromosome abnormalities, and/or ambiguous genitalia 1 . It usually presents as a painless scrotal mass, peaking in incidence during the first two years of life and then again in young adulthood, with ultrasound findings demonstrating a multicystic mass.…”

We report on a case of juvenile granulosa cell tumor of the testicle in a neonate, a rare testicular tumor in children. No genital ambiguity, anatomic abnormalities, nor sex chromosome aneuploidy was noted in this patient. In our case, despite positive staining for alpha-fetoprotein which is most consistent with yolk sac tumors, all clinical, gross anatomic, histologic, and other immunohistologic characteristics of the tumor remained consistent with the diagnosis of juvenile granulosa cell tumor. The alpha-fetoprotein positivity of the tumor remains unexplained.
