Scrotal ultrasound examinations of 23 male adults and children with the diagnosis of lymphoproliferative disease (LPD) were performed. Diagnoses included acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) (six patients); acute myelogenous leukemia (AML) (one patient); chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) (nine patients); non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (four patients); Hodgkin's lymphoma (three patients). Sonography-biopsy correlation was 100% in identifying testicular infiltrates. Nine of ten patients with testicular involvement had bilateral disease. Six patients had nonpalpable disease correctly identified by sonography. Ultrasound has great potential value as a screening modality for testicular biopsy in ALL and for detecting subclinical or nonpalpable disease in adults with LPD.
对23名诊断为淋巴增殖性疾病（LPD）的成年男性和儿童进行了阴囊超声检查。诊断包括急性淋巴细胞白血病（ALL）（6例）；急性髓细胞白血病（AML）（1例）；慢性淋巴细胞白血病（CLL）（9例）；非霍奇金淋巴瘤（4例）；霍奇金淋巴瘤（3例）。在识别睾丸浸润方面，超声检查与活检的相关性为100%。10例睾丸受累患者中有9例为双侧病变。6例患者通过超声正确识别出不可触及的病变。超声作为ALL患者睾丸活检的筛查方式以及检测LPD成年患者的亚临床或不可触及病变具有巨大的潜在价值。
