Overview
Physical Evaluation
The physical examination findings of scrotal mass depend on the cause of the mass. The likely diagnoses of a scrotal mass based on physical examination findings include:[1]
Swelling of the Testis
Swelling of the testis | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Tender, onset <24 hours | Nontender, gradual onset | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Torsion versus orchitis | Solid | Transilluminates | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Emergent surgical referral | Suspect testicular cancer; order sonography or refer | Hydrocele obscuring testis; order sonography to confirm | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Adapted from American academy of family physicians.[1]
Swelling of the Epididymis
Swelling of the epididymis | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Diffusely swollen, tender, acute onset | Nodule, stable in size | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Epididymitis | Spermatocele; sonography to confirm | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Adapted from American academy of family physicians.[1]
Swelling of the Spermatic Cord
Swelling of the spermatic cord | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Swelling extends to inguinal ring | "Bag of worms" texture | Smooth, transilluminates | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Indirect inguinal hernia | Varicocele | Hydrocele | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
