Acute scrotal swelling is an urgent urologic condition, and its failure in diagnosis is "one of the litigious issues in urologic practice. "1-2 Although acute scrotal pain is due to spermatic cord torsion in 25-35% of cases, the urologist should either rule it out or treat it immediately. 2 We operated a case of acute scrotal edema in a two-day-old boy who had, according to clinical results...

A month old, full-term 2.9 kg male baby, presented with history of passage of stool from the scrotal area for the last 8 days. The child was passing stool normally for the first 18 days of life. On day 19 of life, mother noticed a swelling in the right inguinoscrotal region. Baby started developing abdominal distension and constipation. They sought medical advice in their village on day 23 of l...

Variance and covariance components were estimated for yearling scrotal circumference and weaning weight from Limousin field data. Records of 8.226 bulls were used to evaluate 584 sires and 653 maternal grandsires. Data included all herdbook records of bulls with a recorded scrotal circumference and their weaning contemporaries. Analyses were performed by restricted maximum likelihood techniques...

OBJECTIVES Patients with idiopathic chronic scrotal pain are challenging to both the general practioner and urologist. In this study, we tried to recognize mild epididymitis as an underrecogniczed cause of idiopathic chronic scrotal pain. Methods : We described a consecutive series of 44 patients with idiopathic chronic scrotal pain characterized by mild scrotal pain, mild to moderate tendernes...

INTRODUCTION Scrotal calcinosis is a rare benign entity defined as the presence of multiple calcified nodules within the scrotal skin. There are controversies about the origin of this entity. In fact, it is still debatable whether scrotal calcinosis is an idiopathic growth or dystrophic calcification of dartoic muscles. It is also unclear whether scrotal calcinosis originates from inflammation ...

BACKGROUND Common etiologies of scrotal swelling in neonates include hydrocoele, inguinal hernia and testicular torsion; less common is epididymo-orchitis. Congenital nephrotic syndrome (CNS), a rare entity, is known to present as progressive renal failure and its leading presentation with scrotal involvement has not been reported. MATERIAL/METHODS We report a rare case of CNS with primary cl...

Magnetic resonance (MR) imaging of the scrotum represents an important supplemental diagnostic tool in the evaluation of scrotal diseases. Diffusion-weighted (DW) MR imaging is a developing technique, proved to improve tissue characterization. We evaluated the feasibility and diagnostic performance of DW MR imaging in the detection and characterization of scrotal lesions. We retrospectively eva...

Instrascrotal capillary haemangiomas are very rare benign tumours. They usually present as a scrotal mass, which requires scrotal exploration and tumour excision for definitive diagnosis. They can be easily misinterpreted as testicular tumours, epididymal cysts or sarcomas. Imaging is usually of limited diagnostic value, but can reliably exclude testicular cancer. Their identification is import...

This study aimed to assess the effect of a single IM injection of hydrocortisone succinate in relieving the immediate post-varicocelectomy scrotal edema. In all, 117 patients with grades II and III varicocele who developed post-varicocelectomy scrotal edema were randomly classified into group A (n = 59) that received a single IM hydrocortisone sodium succinate injection plus ordinary post-opera...
