Abstract
Sixty-one patients aged from 2 months to 17 years who were hospitalized between 02.01.2017- 25.05.2019 in the Department of Pediatric Surgery for acute scrotum were investigated by Doppler sonography with S onoscape2 ultrasound equipped with a high-frequency 7-11 MHz linear transducer. Testicular appendage torsion was reported in 49 children, 6 patients were with testicular torsion and 4 were with orchiectomy. Five patients were diagnosed with orchiepididymitis and three patients were with acute scrotum because of different types of trauma. The present article describes the frequency of acute scrotum, its etiology and importance of Doppler investigation in the differential diagnosis of acute scrotum.
