Sonography of bilharzial masses of the scrotum.

Five patients with bilharzial masses of the spermatic cord were studied. Clinical examination and laboratory tests were performed. Plain radiology was used in 1 case to illustrate the calcified masses. Sonography in these patients gives a characteristic picture, with echogenic multiple masses with posterior shadowing. Operative excision of these masses was performed, and histopathological examination was carried out to verify the diagnosis.
