Zusammenfassung

Purpose: To determine whether idiopathic hydrocele effects the shape of ipsilateral testis and can be implicated as a cause of testicular ischemia. Methods and Materials: Group 1 consisted of 23 patients with unilateral idiopathic hydrocele whereas 30 healthy males constituted group 2. All patients underwent scrotal US by which testicular dimensions in craniocaudal (Dcc) and anteroposterior (Dap) axis were measured and Dcc/Dap ratio was calculated. By spectral Doppler analysis, resistivity indices of subcapsular and intratesticular arteries (RIsk, RIit) and RIsk/RIit ratio were determined. Results: Mean Dcc/Dap…
