Year: 2010

Type: article

Abstract: Abdominoscrotal hydrocele (ASH) is an uncommon entity. Although various theories on the development of ASH have been proposed, its etiology is still unclear. According to several etiological theories, it is necessary that ASH have communication with the peritoneum. We present a case of bilateral ASH that had no communication with the peritoneum.
