Özet
Abdominoscrotal hydrocele (ASH) is an apparently highly uncommon clinical entity especially in childhood. While hydrocele is among the commonest inguinal anomaly in adult, its extreme form ASH is infrequently reported form. ASH consists of two large sacs, both abdominal and scrotal, connecting with the inguinal canal. Surgical correction is mandatory. We present a 34-year-old man with giant ASH. He was treated with excision of hydrocele sac through an inguinal approach. © Springer 2006.
