Sumario:Abdominoscrotal hydrocele is an uncommon clinical entity and so is intestinal malrotation. We report a case of 15 year old boy who presented with lump in abdomen previously diagnosed as mesenteric cyst on ultrasound.

This is the first reported case of abdominoscrotal hydrocele with intestinal malrotation.
