My elder brother sonography reports shows that he had hydrocele one side and hernia both the side and after that I visited to another hospital because of some financial problem where doctor told me do repeat test and I did all test such as photography, blood, urine,ECG, x-ray but in repeat test my brothers all reports are normal but doctor said your brother only has hydrocele but not hernia, and also there is pain in my brother stomach which I don't know and after seeing 99% discrepancy in both the reports I am totally confused, doctor told me to go for hydrocele surgery but here I am confused if my brother has hernia also then in future it will be dangerous for him, could anyone please suggest what should I need to do? Should I go for CT scan for pelvis scrotum, this test will help me to detect all proper problems? Please suggest and guide me I am 100% confused and blocked to take any further decision.

Hi lybrate-user I can understandbyur situation. Well both hydroecele and hernia are clinical diagnosis. WE DONPT REQUIRE ANY TEST FOR DIAGNOSIS. USG is a good test but is subjective and depends upon who is doing it. Result may vary. Hernia and hydrocele can coexisit. And its only a qualified surgeon who can tell yu what he has. And not a ct scan. Donot experiment. Belive in yur surgeons. If you have monetary problem visit a govt hospitl were you are expected to find the most experienced surgeons.
