Overview

Scrotal masses deponds on intra testicular or extra testicular may be classified into 6 subtypes based on their anatomical origion.Based on the exictance of pain, scrotal masses may be classified as either painfull or non painfull. The staging of testicular cancer is based on the TNMS.

Classification

Scrotal masses(intratesticular or extratesticular) may be classified according to their anatomical origin into 6 groups:

classification of scrotal masses by anatomical place
Anatomical place Disease Natural history Pain Other symptoms
Skin Sebaceuse cyst

squamouse cell carcinoma

Acute/chronic,stable

Chronic,progressive

No

No

_

Tunica vaginalis hydrocele

,hematocele

Acute /chronic,stable

Acute,caused by trauma

No

Yes

Transillumination

Processus vaginalis indirect inguinal hernia

,hydrocele

Acute/chronic,stable or progressive

Chronic ,stable

No,Yes if strangulated

Based on the pain existant , scrotal masses may be classified as either painfull or non painfull .[2] The staging of testicular cancer is based on the TNMS.[3]
