Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: Incomplete obliteration of the processus vaginalis (PV) in children with inguinal hernia or hydrocele has recently been proposed to relate to smooth muscle cell (SMC) persistence. The aim of this study was to evaluate the diversity and differentiation of smooth muscle phenotypes in sacs associated with inguinal hernia and hydrocele through the expression of alpha-smooth muscle actin (SMA), h-caldesmon,...
