Male Inguinal Hernia

  • Indirect inguinal hernia is a common condition in male infants
  • resulting from a patent processus vaginalis
  • allowing communication between the peritoneal cavity and the scrotal sac
  • through which portions or loops of small intestine may herniate.
  • This is a common surgical repair operation in young children.

Hydrocele

  • a fluid-filled cavity of eiter testis or spermatic cord, where peritoneal fluid passes into a patent processus vaginalis.
  • Hydrocele of the testis is when a very small patent processus vaginalis may not herniate, but allow fluid to pass from the periotoneal cavity leading to the collection of serous fluid between the layers of the membrane (tunica vaginalis).
Normal - fluid around the testicle is absorbed
Noncommunicating hydrocele - fluid remains around the testicle
Communicating hydrocele - fluid flows back and forth between the scrotum and the abdomen
Hydrocele of the cord - fluid is located between the scrotum and the abdomen

 ICD-11 GB00 Hydrocele or spermatocele - A condition characterized by an accumulation of serous fluid in the tunica vaginalis testis or along the spermatic cord, and cystic swelling containing fluid and dead spermatozoa of the testicular epididymis, rete testis or efferent ductuli.
