Abdominoscrotal hydrocele: A case report.

Although various ideas have been proposed regarding this disease, there is still controversy over its etiology. We report a case of abdominoscrotal hydrocele in a one year old boy (Mofid Children's hospital, Tehran, Iran) with history of right sided herniorrhaphy one month ago in other center. Slow growing mass in lower abdomen was noted by parents. For better diagnose, ultrasound and CT scan was performed. In operation missed large abdominalscrotal hydrocele was confirmed.
