1.AnswerD.Imagesoftheleft testisshowawell-circumscribedsolidmasswithmultipleconcentric
hypo-andhyperechogenicringsgivingitan“onionring”appearance.Thereislackofvascularflow on color Doppler,and thesurroundingtesticularparenchymaisnormal. The findingsare pathognomonicof epidermoidcystofthetestis,whichisararebutbenignlesion.
Alternating hypo- and hyperechogenic concentric rings are considered to be characteristic of an epidermoid cyst and correspond to its natural evolution. The lining of the cyst produces keratin in successivelayersbydesquamatingepitheliumfromthecystwall,resultingintheonionringappearance.

2.  Answer D.  The potential for higher ultrasound intensities to cause biologic injury has been
established in the laboratory. A theoretical risk exists that diagnostic ultrasound can also produce unwanted biologic effects on humans, especially on intrauterine gestations as a result of thermal and nonthermalbioeffects.However,diagnosticultrasoundhasanexcellentsafetyrecord,andtherehavebeen no reportedincidents ofadversebioeffectson humansatdiagnosticultrasoundlevels inthe absenceof contrastagents.Insituationsinwhichan ultrasoundisclinicallyindicated,thebenefitof the ultrasound willoutweightherisks.

4a.AnswerD.Imagesoftherighttesticleshowmultipleechogenicfociwith“dirty”shadowinginthe
scrotumposteriortotherighttesticleconsistentwith gas.Inthesettingofscrotal swelling,painandno history of trauma, the findings are consistent with Fournier gangrene. The most common predisposing factors for Fournier gangreneare diabetesmellitus and alcoholism.Therefore,choice Dis the correct answer.
Coexistingdiabetesmellitushasbeenfoundinupto40%to60%ofpatientswithFourniergangrene. OtherpredisposingfactorsincludeindwellingFoleycatheters,surgicalprocedures,malignancy,steroids, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, prolonged hospitalization, and HIV. It occurs most frequently in men aged 50 to 70 years. Multiple organisms are usually involved, including Klebsiella, Streptococcus, Proteus,andStaphylococcus.
Congestive heartfailure (choice B) andpseudomembranous colitis (choice C) arenot risk factors. Although malignancy can be associated with Fournier gangrene, lymphoma (choice A) is incorrect becausediabetesmellitusisafarmorecommoncause.
4b.AnswerD.The treatmentofFourniergangreneincludesIV antibiotics,hemodynamicstabilization,
and immediate surgical debridement. Multiple debridements may be needed to remove all nonviable tissue.Patients with incomplete debridement/drainage orwho aretreatedwithantibiotics alonehavea poor prognosis. Thecause ofdeath includessevere sepsis, multipleorgan failure, coagulopathy, acute renalfailure,anddiabeticketoacidosis.

5.AnswerC.Images1and2showacontourabnormalityofthetesticleatthelowerendoftheimage.
Image 3 shows flow within the testicle, except for a peripheral hypoechoic area with no flow, and geographic,non–mass-likemargins.Thereisdisruptionofthetunicaalbuginea,whichisfreefloatingin image1.Thefindingsareconsistentwithtesticularrupture.
The tunica albuginea is a thin, echogenic curvilinear structure completely surrounding the testes.
Disruption ofthetunicaalong with extrusion oftheseminiferous tubules is a specificsignoftesticular rupture. The contour abnormality at the lower end of the images represents the extruded seminiferous tubules. In addition, there is a hydrocele containing low-level echoes consistent with a hematocele. Therefore,bluntscrotaltrauma (choice C) isthecorrectanswer.Anintact tunica albugineais crucial, because,ifintact,surgeryisusuallynotindicated.Ifdisrupted,testicularviabilitycanbemaintainedmore than80%ofthetimeifsurgeryisperformedwithin72hours.Afterward,viabilitydropstobelow50%.A disruption of the tunica albuginea is a definitive sign of rupture, but is often not detected. A contour abnormalityindicatesextrusionoftheseminiferoustubulesandisareliablesecondarysign.
Patients with intrascrotal hematoma or hematocele will typically undergo surgical exploration becauseofthedifficultyinexcludingruptureintheirpresence.Testicularfractureindicatestearingofthe testicular parenchyma with or without disruption of the tunica albuginea.Itappears as anavascular or hypovascularintratesticulardefect.Intratesticular hematomaisalsocommonintesticulartrauma.When large,theycanleadtotesticularnecrosis,andsurgicalexplorationisnecessary.
Acute onset of testicular pain and swelling (choice A) can be seen in epididymitis–orchitis and torsion. However, the contour abnormality and disrupted tunica would not be seen in either of these entities.OnewouldexpecttoseeamasswithDopplerflow,andnodisruptionofthetunicaifthepatient hadaneoplasticprocess (choice B).Feverandpyuria (choice D)wouldbeindicativeofaninfectious process.Ofthechoices,theimagessupporttrauma,notinfection.

6.AnswerC.Multipledilatedveinswithintherightscrotumarecompatiblewithascrotalvaricocele.
Varicocelesareusuallytheresultofincompetentorcongenitallyabsentvalveswithinthetesticularvein. Theyarethemostcommoncorrectablecauseofmaleinfertility.Diagnosticcriteriaincludedilatedveins ofthepampiniformplexusgreaterindiameterthan2to3mminstandingorsupinepositionsandvenous refluxonDopplerimagingduringorwithoutaValsalvamaneuver.Themajorityofvaricoceles(85%)are unilateralandleftsided.Bilateralvaricocelesconstitutethemajorityoftheremainderofcases.Unilateral right-sided varicoceles rarely occur. When they do, compression of the right spermatic vein by a retroperitonealmassorsitusinversusshouldbeconsidered.

7.AnswerA.Spermgranulomasarepresumedtobebecauseofanecrotizinggranulomatousresponseto
extravasatedspermatozoa.Theycanbepainfulorasymptomaticandaremostfrequentlyfoundinpatients whohaveundergonevasectomy.Spermgranulomasaretypicallyhypoechoicorheterogeneousandoften lackincreasedDopplerflow.Calcificationscanbeseeninchronicspermgranulomas.
Varicoceles(choiceB)areanechoicandtubularandcontainDopplerflow.Germcelltumors(choice C)arisefromthetestisandnottheepididymis.Thelesionshownissolidandintheregionofepididymis. Thereisnoperitesticularcollectiontosuggesthematocele(choiceD).

8a.AnswerD.Thefirstimageisoftherighttesticle,whichhasanormalappearanceandnormalcolor
Dopplersignal.Thesecondimageisofthelefttesticle,showingnodetectableDopplersignal.Thethird
image shows asymmetryof flow on a side-by-side view, andthefourth imagelabeled “leftspermatic cord”showsawhirlpoolappearance ofthecord,theso-calledtorsionknot.Thisisacase oftesticular torsion.Inadultspresentingwithacutescrotalpainintheabsenceoftrauma,thedistinctionmustbemade between torsion and an inflammatory condition such as acute epididymitis. Testicular torsion usually occursasa resultofa faultyattachmentofthe testistothescrotalwall,most commonlyresultinginthe bell-clapperdeformity.Inthiscondition,thetunicavaginaliscompletelysurroundsthetestis,causingthe testistobefreelysuspendedbythespermaticcordinthescrotalsac.Promptsurgicalintervention(choice D)isnecessaryifthetestisistobesalvaged.
The salvage rateis80%to100% ifsurgeryisperformedwithin 6hoursafterthe onset ofpainbut dropstoonly20%ifsurgeryisdelayedformorethan12hours.Inmostcasesoftorsion,asinthiscase, therewillbenodetectableflow.Somecaseswillshowflowthatisasymmetric,whichiswhyside-by­sideimagesaremandatory.Ifthetorsionisprolonged,theremaybehyperemiainthetissuessurrounding the infarcted testis. Gray-scale findings in torsion are variable, and echogenicity may be normal, increased, or decreased, and the parenchyma may be homogeneous or heterogeneous. If the testis is hypoechoicorheterogeneous,itislikelynonviable.
ChoiceAisincorrectbecausethisisnota caseofepididymitis.Withepididymitisorepididymitis– orchitis,onewouldexpecttoseeincreasedflowonthesideofpain,notdecreased/absentflowasinthis case.Ifthiswasacaseoftumorinfiltrationofthelefttestis,onewouldexpecttoseeincreasedflowin the affectedparenchyma. Tumor most oftenpresents as a painless mass, which is not how this patient presented.Therefore,astagingCTscan(choiceB)isnotappropriate.ChoiceCisincorrectbecauseof theneedforpromptsurgicalintervention,ideallywithin6hours,forsalvage.
8b.AnswerC.Approximately20%isthecorrectanswer,asdiscussedabove.

9.AnswerD.Thehistoryoflifelongsteroidsupplementationsuggestsadiagnosisofcongenitaladrenal
hyperplasia. Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disorder resulting inan enzyme deficiency (usually 21-hydroxylase deficiency) involved in the production of cortisol and aldosterone. Low levels of glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids lead to elevated levels of adrenocorticotropin(ACTH),whichinturnleadtoadrenalhyperplasia.Adrenalrestsareectopicfociof adrenal tissue that can be found in up to 50% of normal neonates within the retroperitoneum, broad ligaments,ovaries,inguinalregion,andtestes.Normally,adrenalrestsalmostalwaysregress.However, elevatedACTHlevelsinthesettingofCAHcanmaintainandgrowtheectopicrests.Testicularadrenal rests are usually bilateral and vary in size from 4 to 38 mm. They are usually sharply demarcated hypoechoiclesionsonultrasound.Largelesionsarepalpable.Aslesionsenlarge,theymaycompressthe surroundingtesticularparenchyma,leadingtoinfertilityorchronicpain.
Anincreaseinsizeandnumberoftesticularadrenalrestscanoccurifexogenoushormonetherapyis inadequate. Increasing the dose of exogenous hormone therapy until endogenous ACTH levels are suppressedcanresultinregressionofadrenalresttumors.Therefore,choiceD,increasedsteroiddosage, iscorrect.
Testicular biopsy (choice B) and bilateral orchiectomy (choice C) are not the correct answers because although the sonographic appearance of individual adrenal rests overlaps with testicular carcinoma,thebilateralityofthelesions is veryunusual fortesticularcancer.Antibiotics (choiceA)is alsoincorrectbecausethesonographicmass-likefindingswithoutpainorothersignsofinfectiondonot
indicateaninfectiousprocess.
Other differential considerations for bilateral testicular lesions include Leydig cell hyperplasia, sarcoidosis,lymphoma,andmetastases.

10.AnswerD.Tubularectasiaoftheretetestisisanincidentalfindingthatdoesnotwarrantanyfurther
evaluation, intervention, or follow-up. Multiple anechoic cystic or tubular spaces replacing the mediastinumtestis,oftenbilaterally,arethe typicalsonographicappearanceandshouldnotbeconfused withtesticulartumororabscess.
No further evaluation is required as tubular ectasia of the rete testis is a benign entity. Therefore, choice A is incorrect. Tubular ectasia of the rete testis is a noninfectious entity and does not need treatmentwithantibiotics(choiceB). Atesticularabscess hasthe appearanceofa more heterogeneous complex fluidcollectionwithperipheral hyperemia.Tubularectasiaoftheretetestis isa benignentity that does not require surgical intervention (choice C). Testicular malignancies often are solid or have dominantsolidcomponents.

11a.AnswerD.Imagesshowasmalltestiswiththickoverlyingtissuecompatiblewithanundescended
lefttestis.Althoughundescendedtestescanoccuranywherewithintheretroperitoneumfromthelevelof thelowerpoleofthekidneytotheinguinalregion,approximately80%arelocatedintheinguinalregion. Mostofthosearejustcaudaltotheexternalinguinalring.
11b.  Answer A.  Complications associated with undescended testes include infertility, carcinoma,
torsion,andincreasedsusceptibility totesticulartraumaticinjury. Althoughanundescended testishasa significantlyincreasedriskofdevelopingcancer(usuallyseminoma),thenormaldescendedtestisisalso placed at an elevated cancer risk. This increased risk does not completely disappear following orchiopexyandpatientsrequirecontinuedsurveillancefortesticularcancer.
11c.  Answer D.  American Urological Association (AUA) guidelines recommend against the use of
imagingintheevaluationofboyswithcryptorchidism.Morethan70%ofcryptorchidtestesarepalpable and require no imaging. Patients with nonpalpable cryptorchid testes should undergo a diagnostic laparoscopytoidentifyandtreatthemalpositionedtestes.Theinvestigationcanendiftesticularabsence isconfirmedatsurgery.

12a.  Answer C.  Enlargement and decreased echogenicity of the epididymis and right testis with
hyperemia are classic features of acute epididymitis–orchitis. Most commonly, inflammation of the scrotuminvolvestheepididymisasaresultofalowerurinarytractinfection.Wheninflammationspreads into the testis, an epididymitis–orchitis results. Hence, isolated orchitis is much less common than isolatedepididymitis. Inflammationoftheepididymismaybefocalordiffuse,whereasinflammationof thetestisismuchmorefrequentlydiffuse.Whenafocalhypoechoichypervascularintratesticularlesionis foundinthesettingofsuspectedinflammation,follow-upsonographyshouldbeperformedtoexcludean occultmalignancy. Pain andtenderness of the abnormal testis withouta palpable mass or signs of an inflamedepididymisonimagingwouldfavorafocalorchitis.Themostcommoncomplicationsoforchitis includepyocele,testicularabscess,andtesticularinfarction.
12b.  Answer C. Vascularity ofthe normal epididymis is less thanthetestis. Normally, flow maynot
necessarilybedetectableonDopplersonography.

13a.AnswerC.Imagesshowanintratesticularmasswithcystic,solid,andcalcifiedcomponentsnearly
replacing the right testicle. A thin rim of normal testicular parenchyma surrounds the mass. Imaging featuresareconsistentwithneoplasm.
Althoughacuteepididymitis–orchitismaycausetheaffectedsidetoappearenlargedandhyperemicas inthiscase,orchitisisnotmass-likeandshouldalsoinvolvetheepididymis.Inthiscase,theepididymis isnormal.Bothintratesticularhematomaandtesticularrupturemaycauseheterogeneousechogenicityof the testicle. Hematomas should be avascular onDoppler imaging.Testicular rupture isalso associated with irregular testicular contour or disruption of the tunica albuginea and is accompanied by a hematocele.
13b.AnswerA.Imagesshowamasswithcystic,solid,andcalcifiedcomponentsnearlyreplacingthe

13c.AnswerA. Testicular tumorsspreadviathelymphaticchannels, whichaccompany the testicular
vessels.Forthisreason,theretroperitoneallymphnodesaretypicallythefirstsiteofspreadwithright­sidedtumorsspreadingtotherightparacaval,precaval,andrightretrocavalnodesandleft-sidedtumors spreadingtotheleftpara-aorticandpreaorticnodes.Hematogenousspreadtothelungs,brain,bone,and livercanalsooccur.

Theupperpoleofthetestisismorepronetoinfarctionbecauseofdualsupplytothelowerpolefrom theposteriorepididymalartery.Onultrasound,awedge-shapedareaofhypoechogenicityorheterogeneity isusuallyseenwiththevertexdirectedtowardthemediastinumtestis.Thereislackofflowoncoloror power Doppler imaging. Occasionally, the area of infarct may appear rounded on ultrasound with surroundingmasseffect. In such cases,itmaybedifficulttodifferentiatefrom testiculartumor.MRI is helpful in these cases and will show an area of nonenhancement sometimes surrounded by a rim of perilesionalenhancement.
