Although sonography has become an established modality in the evaluation of acute and chronic scrotal abnormalities, its role in the post-herniorrhaphy patient with scrotal swelling has not yet been defined. We present 5 patients with immediate and delayed complications of herniorrhaphy in which sonography provided useful clinical information. Immediate complications included scrotal hematomas, scrotal wall and septal thickening, epididymitis, and testicular displacement. Delayed complications included an infected hydrocele demonstrating a fluid-debris level. The etiology of scrotal swelling in postherniorrhaphy patients can be determined with sonography.
