Fetal diagnosis of meconium periorchitis: A case report

Fetal meconium periorchitis (MPO) is rare prenatal diagnosis associated with meconium peritonitis. The prenatal ultrasound finding consists of an enlarged fetal scrotum with echogenic fluid and debris. In this report, we describe a case in which a prenatal diagnosis of MPO was accurately made at 32 weeks of gestation. The neonate delivered without complications, underwent immediate evaluation followed by major surgery, and ultimately had a favorable outcome. An accurate prenatal diagnosis is important to counsel the patient in a multidisciplinary approach. This case highlights the prenatal ultrasound findings as well as the neonatal presentation and the possibility for conservative management by pediatric urology.
