A child with cystic dysplasia of the testis (CDT) that presented as a solid mass by ultrasound imaging is reported. The child also had ipsilateral multicystic dysplasia of the kidney (MCDK). A search of the literature revealed that unilateral renal agenesis (URA) is commonly associated with CDT. It is possible that CDT, MCDK, and URA share a common pathogenesis. Cystic changes in the epididymis were found in the patient and might be more frequently associated with CDT than previously reported. CDT should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a solid testicular mass detected by ultrasound.
本文报道了一名睾丸囊性发育异常（CDT）患儿，超声检查显示为实性肿块。该患儿还患有同侧多囊性肾发育不良（MCDK）。文献检索发现，单侧肾缺如（URA）通常与CDT相关。CDT、MCDK和URA可能具有共同的发病机制。在该患者中发现附睾有囊性改变，其与CDT的关联可能比之前报道的更为常见。超声检查发现实性睾丸肿块时，鉴别诊断应考虑CDT。
