A retrospective study was performed between 1985 and 1994 on paediatric patients operated for asymptomatic intrascrotal or testicular palpable masses. Tumour was suspected in each case and it was surgically explored. Twenty-six children were affected, their age ranging between 9 days and 14 years. In 11 cases testicular torsion, in 4 epididymitis and in another 2 dystrophic calcification were found. Tumours, including rather rare alterations, were observed in only 9 children. The present results draw attention to the tumour-like occurrence of testicular torsions and other benign alterations of the scrotum.
1985年至1994年间,对因无症状阴囊内或睾丸可触及肿块而接受手术的儿科患者进行了一项回顾性研究。每例均怀疑有肿瘤,并进行了手术探查。26名儿童受到影响,年龄在9天至14岁之间。发现11例睾丸扭转,4例附睾炎,另外2例为营养不良性钙化。仅在9名儿童中观察到肿瘤,包括相当罕见的病变。目前的结果提醒人们注意睾丸扭转及阴囊其他良性病变的肿瘤样表现。
