“…Estevão-Costa et al reported a case of hemorrhagic abdominoscrotal hydrocele in childhood and commented that hemorrhage might have led to tense scrotal swelling. 5 Likewise in our case, it was assumed that acute hemorrhage due to chronic inflammation in the tunica vaginalis or otherwise simply the result of repeated punctures caused rapid accumulation of reactive fluid to make a giant manifestation as hydrocele.…”

“…ASH often presents with a giant hydrocele, which occasionally leads to pressure related complications including hydronephrosis, appendicitis, testicular dysmorphism, deep vein thrombosis, leg edema, testicular torsion, adverse effect on spermatogenesis, testicular up-migration, and spontaneous rupture. 4 , 5 Hemorrhage was also reported as a rare event in ASH.

Bilateral abdominoscrotal hydrocele in childhood

Introduction Bilateral abdominoscrotal hydrocele is a rare entity in childhood. The etiology of abdominoscrotal hydrocele has not been fully clarified. The diagnosis is based on clinical examination, ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging. The treatment is surgery. Case outline This paper presents an eight-month-old boy who was admitted at the department of pediatric surgery due to bilateral swellings in the scrotum area. The changes were first noticed when he was three months old and the diagnosis of bilateral abdominoscrotal hydrocele was confirmed after the scrotum ultrasound examination. When the patient was six and eight months old, the symptoms have significantly increased, the magnetic resonance of the abdomen and the lesser pelvis was performed, and the bilateral abdominoscrotal hydrocele was successfully treated with inguinal surgery. The operative and postoperative course was uneventful. Conclusion In this paper, we presented a rare form of hydrocele in children, as well as diagnostic evaluation that involved ultrasound and magnetic resonance examination. Surgical treatment by inguinal approach is also presented.

“…During physical assessment, it was noticed that at pressure to abdominal component, scrotal component increased and vice versa, which was called "springing back ball" (7). Although some authors include diagnostic processing and magnetic resonance and computerised tomography, these invasive methods should be kept for clear cases after ultra sound check and for critically diseased children (8).…”

A bdominoscrtoal hydrocele is unusual condition with large scrotal hydrocele, which communicates through narrow inguinal channel with abdominal component. Abdominoscrotal hydrocele is not a benign condition, because complications such as acute appendicitis, testicular dismorphism, ureterohydronephrosis, paratesticular malignity have been described earlier. This case study describes one year old boy with both-sided abdominoscrotal hydrocele. Abdominal masses connected with hydrocele need to induce a suspicion of this condition. Early diagnosis and existing surgical techniques for treatment of this disorder are the key factors in prevention of complications associated to this disorder.
