Abstract
An 18-month-old boy who had bilateral abdominoscrotal hydroceles prese nted with an acute inflammation of the left hydrocele followed 1 week later by similar spontaneous inflammation of the right side. He was tr eated with excision of both hydrocele sacs. A review of the literature shows that this is the first report of an abdominoscrotal hydrocele p resenting in this unusual fashion.
