▪️size: ( unilateral, pure scrotal / inguinoscrotal , relation to the testis , cord , penis )
▪️Shape
▪️Surface
▪️Skin ( regosities, redness, edema, ulcer, scar, sinus, pigmentation)
3⃣ask the pt to cough
🟫Palpation:
1⃣Ask about pain
2⃣Assess tenderness and temperature, start by normal
3⃣The swelling
▪️Shape
▪️Surface
▪️Edge
▪️consistency ( soft,firm, hard, cystic) ➡️ fluctuation test + translumination + reducability + cough impulse
4⃣Scrotal neck test: feel the cord
▪️Pull the tail of scrotum between thumb & other finger behind
▪️can you get above it :
Yes > pure scrotal
No > ingiunoscrotal ; hernia
▪️Hinge test?
5⃣Can you feel the swelling separate from the testis
▪️Yes : it could be ➡️
1. Epididymal cyst ( upper pole, translucent)
2. Spermatocele ( smooth, opaque)
3. Hydrocele of the cord (translucent)
4. Varicocele ( bag of worm, opaque, standing)
▪️No : it could be ➡️
1. Hydrocele ( soft + fluctuating)
2. Hematocele ( above + tender )
3. Tumor, gumma, chronic hematocele ( irregular mass , not tender)
6⃣ Relation to the cord: traction test if look separate from the testis
7⃣ Does it transulminate:
▪️If Yes ➡️
1. vaginal hydrocele
2. hydrocele of the cord
3. epididymal cyst
▪️If No ➡️
1. tumor ,
