  • Title: Acute scrotal swelling.
    Author: Rabinowitz R, Hulbert WC.
    Journal: Urol Clin North Am; 1995 Feb; 22(1):101-5. PubMed ID: 7855946.
    Abstract:
    Acute scrotal swelling is a potential emergency. The differential diagnosis includes torsion of the testis or one of the testicular appendages, hydrocele, varicocele, trauma, tumor, idiopathic scrotal edema, and Henoch-Schönlein purpura. Imaging studies, such as radionuclide scanning and color Doppler ultrasonography, are helpful in equivocal cases.
