Abstract
Sonography has proven to be a useful diagnostic tool in the evaluation of scrotal abnormalities. Three uncommon, interesting abnormalities—epididymoochitis as the presenting manifestation of Hemophilus influenzae sepsis, torsion of undescended testis, and abdominoscrotal hydrocele—are presented. All had swelling of both the scrotum and the inguinal area. Sonography played a significant role in the evaluation and management of these patients.Keywords
