ABSTRACT
Testicular tumor in prepubertal age group is uncommon. Most of the testicular tumors are benign in this age group and present as painless, hard testicular mass. We present a case where a 7 year male child presented to us with painless scrotal swelling, which was cystic and transilluminating, clinically mimicking as hydrocele. On ultrasonography, the mass was solid. Orchidectomy was performed and histopathology revealed mature cystic teratoma.
ABSTRACT
Hypertrophic pyloric stenosis (HPS) is the most common cause of gastric outlet obstruction in infants, with an incidence of 1.5 to 3 per 1000 live births, and classically presents at 3 to 4 weeks of age. Delayed presentation of HPS is an extremely rare occurrence after early infancy. With the exclusion of congenital HPS, gastric outlet obstruction in childhood is a rare condition (1:100,000). We report a case of delayed presentation of HPS in a 4 1/2-year-old child in whom the pylorus was hypertrophied and appeared like an "olive," and for which pyloromyotomy was curative.
