Some of these symptoms include acute orchitis and epididymitis. The goal of this research is to see if COVID\u201019 infection and scrotal infection are associated.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Materials and methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Patients with a COVID\u201019 (+) who agreed to a scrotal ultrasound (US) examination were studied prospectively in a tertiary care center between October 2021 and February 2022. The severity of the disease was used to divide patients into groups. Patients diagnosed with acute scrotal infection based on scrotal ultrasonography findings were compared in these groups, as were their age, comorbidities, and laboratory data.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The median age of the 213 participants was 61.7\u2009\u00b1\u20098.3. During the ultrasonographic examination of the patients, 15 (7%), 8 (3.7%), 17 (7.9%), and 40 (18.7%) were diagnosed with acute orchitis, acute epididymitis, acute epididymo\u2010orchitis, and scrotal infection, respectively. Acute scrotal infection was far more common in patients with a higher clinical severity of the disease. The patients' comorbidities were also assessed, and it was discovered that they were statistically more common in the same group.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Even if there are no clinical symptoms, ultrasonography can help detect acute scrotal infection in COVID\u201019 patients. Furthermore, in groups with higher clinical severity, this association is more likely to be seen. It is critical to understand this in order to avoid complications.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/jcu.23263","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,7,1]],"date-time":"2022-07-01T08:25:36Z","timestamp":1656663936000},"page":"1385-1390","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Sonographic
