Introduction. Dirofilariasis of the scrotum is one of unusual manifestations of this zoonosis in children, especially in regions which are outside the distribution area of this helminth what causes certain difficulties in preoperative diagnostics.
Purpose. To describe a clinical case so as to warn physicians about a possibility of meeting dirofilariasis infection in the scrotum outside the area of this helminth location.
Clinical case. The authors present a clinical case of a child with a parasitic cyst simulating tumor in the scrotum for what an oncologist was invited for the consultation. At the examination, a rounded formation adjoining the left testicle, densely elastic in consistency, with smooth borders, motionless to the testicle, painless on palpation was revealed. The child did not leave the region. A parasitic cyst of the scrotum was removed in the clinic of pediatric surgery.
Results. Histopathology confirmed cyst parasitic origin; the revealed parasite was identified as Dirofilaria repens because of characteristic morphological features. The child was found healthy at one-year follow up examination.
Conclusion. Though the disease is rarely met, dirofilariasis should be included in the differential diagnostics in case of mass formations in the scrotum in children.
