A Large Scrotal Pyocele.

This video shows a Large Scrotal Pyocele. Ultrasound is the imaging modality of choice for the investigation of scrotal pain and swelling or follow-up of a known epididymo-orchitis. Features of pyocele on ultrasound are complex, heterogeneous fluid collection in the scrotal sac with septa. gas may be present causing hyperechoic foci and shadowing. Pyocele is an accumulation of pus in a body cavity, such as the scrotum. A scrotal pyocele is a purulent collection of fluid surrounding the testicle in the potential space of the tunica vaginalis and can be distinguished from a hydrocele by the presence of internal echoes consistent with debris, septations, or loculations. Scrotal pyoceles are purulent fluid collections in the scrotal sac, that generally occur in conjunction with epididymo-orchitis. A scrotal pyocele is a purulent collection of fluid surrounding the testicle in the potential space of the tunica vaginalis and can be distinguished from a hydrocele by the presence of internal echoes consistent with debris, septations, or loculations. At sonography, congenital hydrocele appears as an anechoic fluid collection surrounding the anterolateral aspects of the testis and sometimes extending to the inguinal canal or as a fluid collection with low-level swirling echoes, which are related to protein aggregation or deposition of cholesterol crystals. A hydrocele can develop as a result of injury or inflammation within the scrotum. Inflammation might be caused by an infection in the testicle or in the small, coiled tube at the back of each testicle (epididymitis). Hydrocele is defined as fluid surrounding the testicle, which is usually simple, anechoic, and without layering debris. If septations, significant layering, or debris are visualized during scanning, then a diagnosis of a complex hydrocele is made and either pyocele or hematocele is considered. Ultrasound. Ultrasound is the first modality usually used to evaluate hydrocele, which presents as a simple fluid collection. Ultrasound is the first modality usually used to evaluate hydrocele, which presents as a simple fluid collection. It is avascular on Doppler evaluation. It may contain septations, calcifications, or cholesterol. Communicating, infantile and vaginal hydroceles will be seen intimately surrounding the adjacent testis. At sonography, congenital hydrocele appears as an anechoic fluid collection surrounding the anterolateral aspects of the testis and sometimes extending to the inguinal canal or as a fluid collection with low-level swirling echoes, which are related to protein aggregation or deposition of cholesterol crystals. How do you scan a hydrocele? Diagnosis Checking for tenderness in an enlarged scrotum. Applying pressure to the abdomen and scrotum to check for inguinal hernia. Shining a light through the scrotum (transillumination). If you or your child has a hydrocele, transillumination will show clear fluid surrounding the testicle. During an ultrasound examination, the testicles are evaluated transversally and sagittally. Normal testicles have an oval shape and are virtually homogeneous. Hydrocele (pronounced hydro-seal) is a collection of clear or yellow fluid around the testicle within the scrotum. Many male newborns have small hydroceles present at birth, most of which will go away on their own within the first year and do not require surgery. Giant hydrocele has been defined as a hydrocele having more than 1,000ml of contents. There are no medications available to treat a hydrocele. A hydrocele usually does not need to be surgically repaired. A hydrocele typically goes away on its own within six to 12 months of age. If the hydrocele does not resolve on its own, then it needs to be surgically repaired to prevent further complications.
