[Diagnosis of tubular ectasia of the rete testis with color flow Doppler imaging].
OBJECTIVE
To diagnose tubular ectasia of the rete testis with color flow Doppler imaging.


METHODS
Sonographic, CDFI and pulse wave Doppler appearance in tubular ectasia of the rete testis was described.


RESULTS
The characteristic ultrasound appearance with no associated soft-tissue abnormality and no flow on color flow Doppler imaging was seen.


CONCLUSIONS
Color Doppler ultrasound imaging is the first choice for the diagnosis of tubular ectasia of the rete testis.
