Whereas inguinal hernia is a common pediatric disease, fetal inguinal hernia is rarely diagnosed because intra-abdominal pressure usually occurs only after birth. We report a case of prenatal diagnosis of a scrotal mass at 35 weeks' gestation. The initial differential diagnosis included hydrocele, testicular teratoma and testicular torsion, but inguinoscrotal hernia was considered the most likely diagnosis when further ultrasound imaging using a high-frequency probe demonstrated bowel loop movements around the mesenteric artery. This diagnosis was confirmed postnatally.
腹股沟疝是一种常见的儿科疾病，而胎儿腹股沟疝很少被诊断出来，因为腹内压通常在出生后才会出现。我们报告一例在妊娠35周时产前诊断阴囊肿物的病例。最初的鉴别诊断包括鞘膜积液、睾丸畸胎瘤和睾丸扭转，但当使用高频探头进行进一步超声成像显示肠袢围绕肠系膜动脉运动时，腹股沟阴囊疝被认为是最可能的诊断。这一诊断在出生后得到证实。
