    • Atherosclerotic changes of superior mesenteric artery

    • Portal hypertension backing up renal vein

    • Renal carcinoma of the right kidney invading renal vein

    • Twisting of spermatic cord blocking testicular veins

    • Indirect inguinal hernia into scrotum

    Correct Answer
    A. Atherosclerotic changes of superior mesenteric artery
    Explanation
    Atherosclerotic hardening of the superior mesenteric artery classically compresses the left renal vein preventing the left testicular vein from draining. Thus, the patient has a varicocele of the left testicle. B. portal hypertension backs up the portal venous system, not the somatic venous system. C. A renal carcinoma can invade the renal vein, but the right testicular vein drains directly into the inferior vena cava. D. No trauma so torsion isn't likely. E. Indirect inguinal hernia is most likely in a young patient with a patent processus vaginosis.
