Appendicular abscess masquerading as right testicular mass.

Pon Rachel Vedamanickam1.   

Abstract

A 38-year-old man presented with an acute onset of pain and swelling of the right testis. On examination, he was tender in the right iliac fossa (RIF) with a grossly enlarged and tender right testis. Ultrasonography and contrast-enhanced CT of the abdomen and pelvis revealed right epididymo-orchitis, a bulky and inflamed right spermatic cord and a well- defined, thick-walled collection in the RIF. © BMJ Publishing Group Limited 2019.
