520 |a <p><strong>Objective:</strong> To evaluate testicular volume, varicocelle, hydrocelle, microlithiasis, semen parameters and measure serum FSH, LH, and Testosterone concentrations in young male thalassemic patients.</p><p><strong>Design:</strong> Prospective study.</p><p><strong>Setting:</strong> Tertiary care hospital.</p><p><strong>Patients and Method: </strong>This study investigated 62 young adults with beta thalassemia (47 major, 15 intermedia), aged 18-41 years who underwent different chelation therapies. The patients' serum ferritin levels range was from 182 to 11053 ng/mL (mean 2067 ng/mL) at the time of study.</p><p><strong>Results:</strong> The mean size of right testis was 11.4 ml and the mean size of left testis was 11.7 ml. In 3.2% of patients the testes volume was under 4 ml. Varicocele was seen in 11.3% of patients. Microlithiasis was detected in 4.8% of patients. Hydrocele was seen in only in 1.6% of patients. Hypogonadism was seen in 22.6% of patients.</p><p><strong>Conclusion:</strong> This study suggests that in thalassemic men, testicular volume in ultrasound has significant correlation with concentrations of serum Testosterone, LH, FSH and sperm parameters.</p>
