Splenogonadal fusion: An important differential diagnosis for testicular masses
Journal Title: Pediatric Urology Case Reports - Year 2019, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
Splenogonadal fusion is a rare cause of scrotal swelling. We present a case of a 9-year-old boy with a left testicular mass and phocomelia who was found to have splenogonadal fusion upon scrotal exploration. We discuss the etiology, pathophysiology and management of splenogonadal fusion.
