“…The testis is typically enlarged, hot, and painful. Lameness, and systemic signs of fever, anorexia, and listlessness, may be present is some cases [16,79,98,101]. Hematology may reveal neutrophilia, leukocytosis, anemia, elevations of liver enzymes, and hyperproteinemia with mild hypoalbuminemia and marked hyperglobulinemia [16,101].…”

Management of breeding stallions is crucial to equine reproduction. The longevity of the breeding career is the ultimate objective, whether the stallion is used for natural cover or for semen collection and artificial insemination. Stud farm veterinarians should be aware of the techniques used to evaluate testicular function and the diagnostic approach to testicular disorders in cases of emergency. This paper presents the clinical methods used to evaluate testicular health, including palpation, ultrasonography, biopsy, and fine-needle aspiration. The discussion of testicular disorders is broken down into four categories: congenital disorders (cryptorchidism, monorchidism, and testicular hypoplasia), differential diagnosis of scrotal enlargement, differential diagnosis of causes of progressive testicular enlargement, and differential diagnosis of testicular asymmetry or reduction in size with an emphasis on testicular degeneration. The sudden increase in testicular size is often accompanied by severe clinical signs and is a major cause for referral of stallion for surgery. Testicular disorders are illustrated with clinical cases seen by the authors.

“…A orquite e epididimite correspondem a inflamações dos testículos e epididímos, respectivamente, que podem ter diferentes causas (53). Normalmente, a orquite está associada com a epididimite e nos equinos podem ser consequência de traumas, feridas perfurantes no testículo, migração de parasitas, agentes infecciosos por disseminação hematogênica e doença autoimune (54).…”

Os insultos vasculares afetam diretamente a produção e a qualidade das células espermáticas, portanto, o diagnóstico rápido dessas alterações é de extrema importância para evitar danos irreversíveis à reprodução. Desse modo, a ultrassonografia Doppler têm se mostrado um método eficaz no diagnóstico precoce de afecções reprodutivas relacionadas com distúrbios na perfusão sanguínea testicular. Além disso, possibilita o acompanhamento de tratamentos em curso, a fim de melhorar resultados terapêuticos e proporcionar melhor previsão de fertilidade aos garanhões. Em homens, já é um método empregado para diagnosticar distúrbios de fertilidade, entretanto, na veterinária os relatos ainda são escassos e o uso por andrologistas de equinos para este fim, é esporádico. O objetivo dessa revisão é apresentar os princípios da ultrassonografia Doppler e os benefícios para a andrologia de equinos, afim de ampliar o conhecimento a respeito da técnica e facilitar o diagnóstico de afecções durante exames reprodutivos de garanhões.

“…kick from the mare). The stallion in the report by Wilson et al (2007) was actively breeding but had last bred 2 weeks prior to the scrotal enlargement; therefore, trauma was an unlikely cause.…”

“…Based on Figure 5 (Wilson et al 2007) it is very difficult to determine that there was a size discrepancy between the right and left testes. In addition, the body of the right epididymis was not shown, but the tail does not appear enlarged.…”
