  • Title: Scrotal ultrasound in male infertility.
    Author: Patel PJ, Pareek SS.
    Journal: Eur Urol; 1989; 16(6):423-5. PubMed ID: 2687000.
    Abstract:
    During an 18-month period, 200 male infertility patients had scrotal sonography examination. Fifty-seven percent showed abnormal sonogram; such as epididymitis, epididymo-orchitis, orchitis, varicocele, spermatocele, epididymal cyst and undescended testis. Among all lesions, infection was the commonest finding. There was no obvious relation between oligospermic and azospermic patients with scrotal sonographic findings except for testicular atrophy, which was very common among azospermic patients. This study indicates the role of scrotal sonography in male infertility patients.
