Abstract:We present three unusual cases of atypical scrotal lesions in children. The first was a firm left scrotal mass with the testis indistinguishable. The second with apparently a large hydrocoele, which was a cyst, and the third with multiple nodular lesions, pushing the left testis into the right hemiscrotum. These turned out to be a pigmented neuroectodermal tumour, a lymphatic malformation and neurofibromas respectively. Paediatric surgeons should be aware of such surgical surprises.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
