Abstract
We report four cases of acute idiopathic scrotal oedema, an underreported cause of acute painless or moderately painfull swelling and erythema of the scrotum in young boys. It is a self-limiting disease and to prevent unnecessary surgical exploration or antibiotic therapy, it is very important to distinguish acute idiopathic scrotal oedema from more serious diseases.Entities:
