ABSTRACT = {Acute vasitis, or inflammation of the vas deferens, is a rare 
condition that classically presents with unilateral groin 
pain radiating into the scrotum and a bulge or induration 
along the inguinal canal. As a result, it mimics and is often mistaken for more common pathologies such as 
inguinal hernia, epididymo-orchitis or testicular torsion. 
A misdiagnosis may lead to unnecessary surgery and 
morbidity. Here, we present a case of acute vasitis which 
was originally diagnosed as an incarcerated inguinal 
hernia. Finally, we review the imaging findings, which 
can often be subtle and misinterpreted or missed.},
