Inguinal and scrotal suppuration following appendectomy is a rare event, occurring mostly when a patent processus vaginalis is present. Herein we report a small series of children operated for appendicitis and presented with acute inguinal and scrotal symptoms postoperatively. Although acute scrotum is commonly attributed to torsion of testis or its appendage, epididymo-orchitis and incarcerated hernia, following appendicitis scrotal and/or inguinal abscess should be considered.
阑尾切除术后腹股沟和阴囊化脓是一种罕见的情况,大多发生在存在未闭鞘状突时。在此,我们报告一小系列因阑尾炎接受手术且术后出现急性腹股沟和阴囊症状的儿童病例。尽管急性阴囊炎通常归因于睾丸或其附件扭转、附睾炎和嵌顿疝,但阑尾炎后应考虑阴囊和/或腹股沟脓肿。
