Bilateral testicular rupture is rare. Incidence is highest in the 16–20 age group. There are no specific signs or symptoms which make a differential diagnosis between testicular rupture and scrotal traumas possible. Examination at Doppler and ultrasonography and early surgical exploration provide early diagnosis, which is necessary to safeguard fertility. We report one case of bilateral orchialgia, following a diving episode. Ultrasound examination of the scrotum showed bilateral multiple areas of altered echogenicity of the testicular parenchyma and an intact tunica albuginea. During surgery bilateral multiple areas of haemorrhagic necrosis were drained. Outpatient examination one month after leaving the hospital was normal. At 3 and 6 months the results of seminal examination were within normal limits according to the parameters established by the WHO.

Scrotal swelling with intermittent discharge and sinus is rare in paediatric age group. Among various differential diagnosis, Infantile Epididymitis is one possibility of scrotal swelling in infancy. Here, Authors reporting one such case of scrotal swelling in a four-year-old child which was present since three months of age. After failed initial medical management, swelling was excised which was reported as epididymitis in histopathological examination

Scrotal Trauma

Testicular rupture after blunt scrotal trauma is characterized by rupture of the tunica albuginea and extrusion of seminiferous tubules. This is a serious injury and appropriate evaluation and management are necessary both for symptom control, but also for preservation of the testicle. Clinical examination of the scrotum following trauma is difficult and may result in incorrect triage of patients for surgical exploration. This case study describes the assessment and management of blunt testicular trauma in an adolescent lacrosse player.

ABSTRACT This report elaborates a rare case of infraorbital nerve Schwannoma in an 8-year-old boy who presented with the recurrent progressively increasing swelling over the right cheek following initial treatment. The mass was excised surgically via a facial approach. Infraorbital nerve sheath tumors occurring in the pediatric age are rare and can be often mistaken for infectious causes in this age group. Surgery remains the mainstay of treatment in these tumors. Early diagnosis and prompt surgical treatment can serve to minimize the treatment related morbidity arising from multiple interventions while avoiding undue apprehension. Pediatric infraorbital schwannomas, although a rare entity, should be considered in the differential diagnosis of long standing pediatric facial swellings.

Abstract Background Congenital orbital teratoma is relatively rare, and few reports of prenatal ultrasound findings in such cases have been published. Case presentation A rare case of congenital orbital teratoma at 24 + 2 weeks of gestation was previously diagnosed as microphthalmia, noting how orbital teratoma without proptosis is different from microphthalmia, retinoblastoma and intracranial teratoma. Ultrasound examination, analysis of gross specimens, and histopathological evaluation confirmed the diagnosis of orbital teratoma. Conclusion Prenatal ultrasound examination is useful for diagnosis and differential diagnosis of congenital orbital teratoma.

Fracture Diagnosis

Testicular trauma is relatively uncommon. However, severe injuries can result in many complications and should be carefully diagnosed and managed. We present a case of testicular fracture diagnosis made by ultrasonography. The surgical exploration revealed the fracture as well as complete rupture of the tunica albuginea. Testicular rupture is the disruption of the tunica albuginea, while testicular fracture is a “break” in the testicular parenchyma. Management could be conservative in mild fracture cases without rupture while suspected or confirmed fracture should be treated by surgical exploration.

AbstractWe present a rare case of unilateral phlebectasia of the anterior jugular vein in a 56-year-old male patient whose complaint is a neck swelling that appears during talking. Although in this age group the most common cause of such a mass in the anterior aspect of the neck increasing in size during any type of straining or Valsalva manoeuvre is a laryngocele, phlebectasia of the anterior jugular vein should be considered in the differential diagnosis. Doppler ultrasound and computed tomography are the most useful and non-invasive methods to use for the investigation. Treatment should be conservative.

Benign Mass

Head and neck tumors are rare in pediatric patients but should be kept in the differential when a patient presents with a new swelling or mass. One of these tumors is a myxoma, which is an insidiously growing, benign mass originating from the mesenchyme. They most commonly arise in the myocardium but can also develop in facial structures, particularly in the maxilla and mandible. When arising in facial structures, ocular, respiratory, and digestive systems can be affected based on local invasion. Complete surgical resection is curative but can lead to significant morbidity as well. Here, we present a case of a 15-month-old toddler presenting with a paranasal mass, which was ultimately diagnosed as a maxillary myxoma. This tumor is very rare in the pediatric population, especially in the toddler age-group, reminding clinicians to broaden the differential diagnosis when a patient’s course is atypical.

Paratubal Cyst

Leiomyoma is a benign mesenchymal tumor that develops from smooth muscle cells. It can present in various histological variants. Leiomyoma with bizarre nuclei is an infrequent variant of uterine smooth muscle neoplasm. It is characterized by focally or diffusely distributed bizarre cells on the background of a typical leiomyoma. These bizarre cells are large, multinucleated, or multilobulated and have an eosinophilic cytoplasm. Even though leiomyomas with bizarre nuclei display benign clinical behavior, their differential diagnosis from leiomyosarcoma can sometimes be difficult. Leiomyoma has been described most commonly in the uterus. There is no case of leiomyoma originating from paratubal cysts described in the literature. In this article, we present a rare case of leiomyoma with bizarre nuclei originating from a paratubal cyst.
