Ultrasound imaging of scrotum in 137 patients detected 31 inflammatory lesions of epididymis or testis, 8 tumors, 23 cystic lesions, 21 hydroceles and 19 other affections. Medical or surgical treatment was instituted in 63% of patients, the other 37% failing to attend. Therapy was effective in 90.5% of cases (100% of fluid lesions, 80.6% of inflammatory lesions and 87.5% of tumors). Ultrasound imaging appears to be an excellent complement to clinical examination, when findings are insufficient or when examination is difficult because of severe pain, allowing identification of the fluid or solid nature of a lesion. It is also of specific value for diagnosis of subclinical tumors, surveillance of patients at risk and detailed investigation of inflammatory lesions.
