ultrasound testicles

My husband had an ultrasound done of the testicles this is what the results revealed. No evidence of testicular torsion or epididymal orchitis.Small hydrocele right scrotal sac. Left epididymis larger than the right. No evidence of cyst, solid mass or calcification of the right & left testicles. Normal vascular flow to both the testicles.There are some lymph nodes noted in the right groin measuring 6 x 9 x 14 mm, 6 x 12 x 12mm & 5 x 6 x 10 mm and these are the three largest lymph nodes visualized. We are wondering what all of this means? What can cause these kinds of things? Thank you very much for your time.

Hello Dana1969,

Hydrocele denotes a pathological accumulation of serous fluid in a bodily cavity. A hydrocele testis is the accumulation of fluids around a testicle, and is fairly common. It may be treated surgically. The associated enlargement of the lymph nodes can be either due to some kind of infection or might be due to malignancy. Consult the urologist for further action and support.
