Unilateral cryptorchidism and Sertoli cell tumor in the descended testis were provisionally diagnosed by use of ultrasonography in a 7-year-old Keeshond. The left testis was thought to have degenerated, but ultrasonography of the scrotum did not reveal evidence of testicular or epididymal tissue. The contralateral testis contained a hypoechoic mass believed to be a testicular tumor. Surgery and histopathologic findings confirmed the diagnosis. Ultrasonography of the scrotum and its contents should be considered for use in animals with suspected testicular neoplasia and/or degeneration.
通过超声检查，对一只7岁的荷兰毛狮犬初步诊断为单侧隐睾症和下降睾丸中的支持细胞瘤。左侧睾丸被认为已经退化，但阴囊超声检查未发现睾丸或附睾组织的迹象。对侧睾丸有一个低回声团块，被认为是睾丸肿瘤。手术和组织病理学检查结果证实了诊断。对于怀疑有睾丸肿瘤和/或退化的动物，应考虑对阴囊及其内容物进行超声检查。
