Abstract
RIPA SALDIAS, L. et al. Segmental testicular infarction. Actas Urol Esp [online]. 2006, vol.30, n.2, pp.227-230. ISSN 0210-4806.
We report the case of a 47 years old man previously diagnosed of left hidrocele. After having a recent mild left testicular pain, an ultrasonografic study revealed a solid hipoecoic testicular lesion rounded by a big hidrocele, suggesting a testicular neoplasm. Radical inguinal orchiectomy was made and pathologic study showed segmental testicular infarction. No malignancy was found. We review the literature of the topic.
Keywords : Testis; Segmental infarction.
