Ultrasound imaging of scrotum in 137 patients detected 31 inflammatory lesions of epididymis or testis, 8 tumors, 23 cystic lesions, 21 hydroceles and 19 other affections. Medical or surgical treatment was instituted in 63% of patients, the other 37% failing to attend. Therapy was effective in 90.5% of cases (100% of fluid lesions, 80.6% of inflammatory lesions and 87.5% of tumors). Ultrasound imaging appears to be an excellent complement to clinical examination, when findings are insufficient or when examination is difficult because of severe pain, allowing identification of the fluid or solid nature of a lesion. It is also of specific value for diagnosis of subclinical tumors, surveillance of patients at risk and detailed investigation of inflammatory lesions.
对137例患者的阴囊进行超声检查，发现31例附睾或睾丸炎性病变、8例肿瘤、23例囊性病变、21例鞘膜积液和19例其他病症。63%的患者接受了药物或手术治疗，另外37%的患者未就诊。治疗在90.5%的病例中有效（液体性病变100%有效，炎性病变80.6%有效，肿瘤87.5%有效）。当临床检查结果不充分或因剧痛导致检查困难时，超声成像似乎是临床检查的极佳补充，可确定病变的液体或实性性质。它对亚临床肿瘤的诊断、高危患者的监测以及炎性病变的详细检查也具有特殊价值。
