Should Testis Elastography be Performed in All Patients with Scrotal Swelling? A Case Report

Some of testicular tumor cases can present with symptoms like epididymo-orchitis and this condition can cause delay in the diagnosis of testis tumor. Even though scrotal Doppler ultrasound has high sensitivity (up to 100%) in the diagnosis of testicular lesions; it alone may not be sufficient in the differential diagnosis of benign and malign lesions. The delay of the diagnosis can cause progression of stage and consequently worsening prognosis. In this case, it was aimed to present a case that is thought to be testicular tumor according to Elastography which applies with clinical features like epididymo-orchitis and cannot be diagnosed with B-mode scrotal Doppler ultrasound.
