Diagnostic Ultrasound - Abdomen and Pelvis
Focal Extratesticular Mass Inguinal Hernia Inguinal Hernia (Left) Oblique ultrasound shows an inguinoscrotal hernia, containing small bowel loops ſt, and mesentery . Note the bowel wall (gut signature), which distinguishes this from a cord or epididymal mass. Note the fluid in the hernia sac st. (Right) Longitudinal ultrasound shows an ill-defined, lobulated, echogenic st structure herniating into the scrotum , features suggestive of an omentocele. Differential Diagnoses: Scrotum Fatty Deposition Fatty Deposition (Left) Longitudinal ultrasound shows an ill-defined hyperechoic structure ſt surrounding the epididymis st. This "pseudomass" is due to the deposition of fat. (Right) Transverse ultrasound shows an ill-defined, hyperechoic structure ſt in the region of the body and head of the epididymis. No obvious discrete mass is identifiable. This "pseudomass" is likely due to the deposition of fat. Parts of epididymis can be seen as small hypoechoic areas within the "pseudomass." Note the normal testis st. Encysted Hydrocele of Cord Encysted Hydrocele of Cord (Left) Longitudinal ultrasound shows an elongated anechoic fluid collection ſt within layers of the distal spermatic cord in the inguinoscrotal region. Note the splayed layers st of the proximal spermatic cord, features suggestive of an encysted hydrocele of the spermatic cord. (Right) Transverse ultrasound shows a chronic, fluid collection ſt with multiple fine septations in the inguinoscrotal region representing an encysted hydrocele of the spermatic cord. 1021
Focal Extratesticular Mass Differential Diagnoses: Scrotum (Left) Solid and cystic extratesticular mass in a patient with with VHL is compatible with a papillary cystadenoma. (Right) Power Doppler shows brisk flow within the solid components of a papillary cystadenoma. Papillary Cystadenoma Papillary Cystadenoma (Left) Power Doppler ultrasound shows relative hypovascularity within a hyperechoic, wellcircumscribed epididymal lipoma . (Right) Oblique ultrasound shows a poorly defined, hypoechoic abscess ſt within the layers of the scrotum, due to the spread of infection from the adjacent inflamed epididymis . Note the track st along which the infection has reached the scrotal wall. Lipoma Epididymal/Scrotal Wall Abscess (Left) A markedly enlarged epididymis ſt with central liquefactive necrosis indicating abscess formation in a patient with subacute epididymitis not responding to antibiotic therapy. (Right) Round hypoechoic collection st representing abscess within an enlarged and hyperemic epididymis in a patient with chronic urinary tract infections and bilateral epididymitis. Note the Doppler flow surrounding, but not within, the collection. Epididymal/Scrotal Wall Abscess Epididymal/Scrotal Wall Abscess 1022
