title: Splenogonadal fusion diagnosed by Doppler ultrasonography.
abstract: Splenogonadal fusion usually presents as a left scrotal mass but rarely is the diagnosis suspected preoperatively. Herein, we present the first report of a left splenogonadal fusion which was suspected preoperatively by doppler ultrasonography in a 2 year old boy.
