“…The patient in our case presented with scrotal pain, which initially we thought was a complicated orchiepididimitis; after inguinal ultrasound, however, we thought that the patient had an incarcerated inguinal hernia, probably with necrotic major omentum inside the hernia sac. In the literature, doppler ultrasound features of this condition have been described [6,7], but a firm diagnosis can be made with a CT scan of the abdomen, which enables the inguinal or scrotal collection to be traced to an inflamed pancreas. The routine use of abdominal CT in the Emergency Department for evaluating abdominal diseases could probably improve diagnostic accuracy, but it is not cost-effective [8].…”

“…Hányinger, hányás, hipotenzió, hímvessző-ödéma, az ondózsinór érzékenysége és scrotumerythema jelentkezhet még társuló tünetként. Az irodalomban találunk rossz prognózisú, az ondózsinór zsírnekrózisával járó nekrotizáló hasnyálmirigy-gyulladáshoz társuló, elülső hasfali tályogrendszerrel, phlegmonéval járó, hydrokelét okozó, illetve heretorziót utánzó eseteket is (5,6,7,8,9). A hasnyálmirigy anatómiai elhelyezkedéséből adódik, hogy a tályogképződéssel járó formáknál a retroperitoneumon keresztül lecsorgó váladék a herezacskó laza szöveteiben felszaporodhat és szekunder abscessus kialakulásához vezethet (10,11,12).…”
