The seminiferous tubules in dasyurid marsupials.

The morphology of the seminiferous tubules of dasyurid marsupials has been investigated in seven species. The tubules are large in diameter, ranging from 0-36 to 0-52 mm, and the total length of the tubules in the testis is small (less than 1 m). In dissected testes, most tubules were found to be in the form of simple loops and the number of loops ranged from one to four. Each loop had two openings into the duct draining the testis. There was only a single duct from the testis in the dasyurids examined. The large diameter, simple form and low number of tubules in the testis of these dasyurid marsupials make them unique among mammals which have been studied in this respect.

Treatment of anogenital warts in genitourinary clinics in England and Wales.

A questionnaire on the treatment of anogenital warts was sent to 150 consultants in genitourinary medicine, 78 (52%) were returned completed. A wide range of treatments were used; podophyllin was the commonest first line treatment of multiple penile (60.3%), perianal (57.7%) and vulval (61.5%) warts. Cryotherapy was a popular choice for intrameatal warts (65.3%), small numbers of vulval warts (33.3%) and as second line therapy for penile (35.9%) and perianal (33.3%) warts. Vaginal warts were treated with podophyllin (39.7%) or cryotherapy (29.5%). Various combinations of podophyllin, trichloroacetic acid and cryotherapy were used (2.6%-24.3%) although there is no evidence this offers benefit over single therapy. Podophyllin is frequently used despite side effects, a poor clearance rate and in vaginal warts, difficult access. Initial therapy with more time-consuming procedures such as cryotherapy or electrocautery may be of benefit to selected patients.
