    Description / Table of Contents: Summary In the diagnosis and treatment of acute scrotal pain and swelling it is important to differentiate between testicular torsion and epididymo-orchitis. A special case of a thirty-eight-year-old male asylant from Nepal was presented in the urological service with acute scrotal pain. To exclude testicular torsion, a diagnostic exploration of the scrotum was done with the findings of an acute funiculitis with abscess formation. Under surgical drainage of abscess together with medical treatment the acute inflammation disappeared. The diagnosis of filarial funiculitis was made after identifying the microfilariae in a blood vessel and in the peripheral blood smear. A filaricide medication with diethylcarbamacine citran was administered with good symptomatic relief.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung In der Diagnostik und Therapie akuter skrotaler Schmerzen kommt der Differentialdiagnose zwischen einer Hodentorsion und einer Epididymoorchitis eine wichtige Bedeutung zu. Wir berichten über einen speziellen Fall eines 38 jährigen Asylanten aus Nepal mit akut aufgetretenen Skrotalschmerzen, bei dem notfallmäßig zum Ausschluß einer Hodentorsion eine Hodenfreilegung durchgeführt wurde. Dabei zeigte sich eine abszedierende Funikulitis, welche drainiert und biopsiert wurde. Histologisch fanden sich Fadenwürmer in den Venen des entzündeten Gewebes. Mit Nachweis einer Mikrofilarämie konnte der Befall durch Wuchereria bancrofti bestätigt werden. Unter antibiotischer Therapie bildeten sich die entzündlichen Veränderungen zurück. Eine filarizide Behandlung unter antiallergischen Schutz komplementierten die Therapiemaßnahmen.

    Notes: Abstract In a 7-year-old boy, a small-bowel polyp was found intraoperatively as a lead point of an intussusception. Histologically, a hamartoma was found and the clinical work-up revealed Peutz-Jeghers syndrome (PJS). Additionally, all four asymptomatic siblings showed intestinal polyposis. All children in a family with PJS should be properly investigated. In case of an intussusception with a polyp in a critical location, a surgical procedure should follow.
