Abstract

Abstract Scrotal Artero-venus malformation (AVM) is a rare congenital vascular anomaly which is demonstrated as swelling, heaviness, pain and bleeding in inguinal and scrotal area and in some cases may result in azoospermia and infertility. Therefore, this can be misdiagnosed with other usual pathologies of scrotum such as hernia and varicocele. Here we present a case of scrotal AVM which was misdiagnosed as varicocele followed by unnecessary varicocelectomy. Finally, diagnostic angiography confirmed the diagnosis and successful angioembolization was performed for the patient.
