title: Prenatal diagnosis of scrotal-inguinal hernia: two case reports and review of the English literature.
abstract: We present two cases of a prenatal diagnosis of inguinal hernia and the fetal outcome. Initial differential diagnosis included sacrococcygeal teratoma and testicular termatoma, while the final diagnosis was scrotal-inguinal hernia based on sonographic visualization of bowel loop movement in the scrotal mass.
