ABSTRACT
Increasing attention has been directed to ultrasound role in evaluation of pathology of superficial organs such as the scrotum. The aim of this work is to highlight the increasing role of ultrasonography in diagnosis of acute scrotal lesions. The study was prformed on 50 patients. The apparatus used a real time, high resolution 5 MHz probe. Five cases of pyocele, 10 haematocele, 15 acute epididymitis, 16 orchitis, 2 testicular traumatic rupture and infarction and 2 testicular torsion were encountered. We conclude by saying that scrotal sonography provides rapid sensitive modality for evaluation of acute scrotal lesions
