Popis: Abdominoscrotal hydrocele is a rarely encountered lesion, with less than 85 cases reported in adults and only seven in children in the world literature. The pathogenesis of this lesion is discussed. It is concluded that all cases of abdominoscrotal hydrocele are due to progressive involvement and distension of the patent processus vaginalis via the inguinal canal into the retroperitoneal space.
