✦ Synopsis

Meconium peritonitis is defined as a nonbacterial chemical peritonitis resulting from small bowel perforation in utero and extrusion of meconium into the peritoneal cavity.' This causes an intense chemical reaction with development of granulomatous tissue.2 Recently, the wide application of ultrasonography has facilitated the diagnosis of meconium peritonitis by demonstrating abdominal calcifications either antenatally or p~stnatally.~ This report describes a case of meconium peritonitis misleadingly diagnosed antenatally by ultrasonography as "scrotal tumor." The possible etiology, however, was different from those cases reported so far.
