The bone syntigraphy is a very high imaging method of sensitivity in the detection of active bone disease. The most common indication is the detection and tracking of bone metastases. As a result of high retention in the bone tissue of the radiopharmaceuticals characterized by the bone syntigraphy, the kidneys and urethra are usually seen during the bone structures and breakthrough, but sometimes the retention in the non-skeletal soft tissues is also. In the entire body’s bone syntigraphy made with Tc-99m MDP, the appearance of scrotal herni or hydroseline is again a rare and interesting finding. In this report we review the literature, we present three facts of scrotal injury identified accidentally during bone syntigraphy in our clinic.

The primary indication is the diagnosis and follow-up of metastatic bone disease. Bone specific radiopharmaceuticals have quite a high skeletal uptake, so bone structures can readily be seen in bone scintigraphy, along with kidneys and bladder during their excretion. However, extra-skeletal uptake in soft-tissue structures on bone scans has been occasionally. Imaging of scrotal hernia and of testicular hydrocele during Tc-99m- MDP bone scintigraphy are rare and interesting findings. In our paper, we presented three cases with scrotal lesions, detected incidentally during bone scintigraphy in our clinic together with a review of the literature on the subject.
