Scrotal ultrasound shows mild hydrocele and a testicular appendix in the upper pole of the right testis.
Case Discussion
If a testicular appendix is noted by ultrasound, it is preferred to mention it in the report although it is normal, because it has a risk of torsion.
This patient has scrotal discomfort due to bilateral varicocele (not shown).
