ABSTRACT
Acute scrotal conditions form a significant proportion of cases in surgical ward. They contribute to significant morbidity in younger age group and mortality in older age group. In this study we have attempted to study the causes, aetiology, prevalence and management of acute scrotal conditions. The prevalence in descending order was Acute epididymo orchitis, Pyocele, Hematocele, Fournier’s gangrene, Acute filarial scrotum, Testicular torsion, Scrotal abscess, Mumps orchitis, scrotal trauma. Of these Epididymo orchitis, mumps orchitis and Filarial scrotum were treated conservatively with antibiotics, rest and scrotal support. Fournier’s gangrene, Scrotal abscess and scrotal trauma with wound debridement and reconstruction. Pyocele and hematocele by incision and evacuation of pus and blood respectively. Testicular torsion is treated by surgical de rotation and B/L orchidopexy. Orchidectomy was done if warranted in hematocele, pyocele, and testicular torsion.
