Abstract:
This study about study of Scrotal sac swelling using Ultrasonography
The aims of the study were to establish the causes of scrotal swelling in the population and to evaluate the relationship between clinical, demographical and sonographic findings 34 patients with age range between 1-80 years presented with scrotal swellings were examined by high resolution real time Toshiba ultrasound machine using 5-12 MHZ linear probe during the period from March 2018 to January 2019 in Omdurman military hospital.
The largest age effected by scrotal swelling (16-30 y) and the lowest age effected by scrotal swelling (more than 75y). The largest weight effected by scrotal swelling (54-75 kg) and the lowest weight effected by scrotal swelling (12 -32kg). The largest occupation effected by scrotal swelling is officer and the lowest occupation effected by scrotal swelling is child.
Married patient 58.8% more effected than unmarried patient 41.2%. The largest cause which causes scrotal swelling is scrotal hydrocele 50%. The correlation between age and final scrotal swelling causes is weak, no significant at P value =0.137. The correlation between weight and final scrotal swelling causes is weak, no significant at P value =0.166. The correlation between occupational and scrotal swelling cases is strong correlation and significant at P value =0.005. The correlation between marital status and scrotal swelling causes is weak correlation and no significant at P value =0.664.
this study recommended to Further studies should be carried out in this field on many aspects such as increasing the number of patients, to show the relation between scrotal swelling and causes, comparing between the role of U/S scanning and other diagnostic tools.
