Overview

Scrotal masses must be differentiated from other diseases that cause scrotal swelling,scrotal pain,such as testicular tortion ,epididimitis,testicular tumors,inguinal herniation and many other diseases.

Differentiating Scrotal masses from the other Diseases

Scrotal masses must be differentiated from other diseases that cause scrotal swelling,scrotal pain,such as testicular tortion ,epididimitis,testicular tumors,inguinal herniation and many other diseases.

The table below summarizes the findings that differentiates scrotal mass according to the clinical features, laboratory findings, imaging features, histological features, and genetic studies.

 ==Overview==
-Scrotal masses may be differentiated according to clinical features, laboratory findings, imaging features, histological features, and genetic studies from other diseases that cause testicular mass with discomfort, [[back pain]], [[abdominal discomfort]], or [[abdominal mass]]. Common differential diagnoses include [[yolk sac tumor]], [[teratoma]], [[choriocarcinoma]], [[embryonal cell carcinoma]], [[seminoma]], and [[lymphoma|testicular lymphoma]] (usually [[non-Hodgkin lymphoma]]).
+Scrotal masses must be differentiated from other diseases that cause scrotal swelling,scrotal pain,such as testicular tortion ,epididimitis,testicular tumors,inguinal herniation and many other diseases.
-==Differential Diagnosis==
+==Differentiating Scrotal masses from the other Diseases==
