[Acute idiopathic scrotal oedema. Case report]
Abstract
A case of acute idiopathic oedema of the scrotum in a 6-year old child is described. The patients presenting with this condition are often misdiagnosed as suffering from torsion of spermatic cord and then submitted to surgery. The clinical features and the presumed pathogenesis of this unusual disease are discussed.
