Bilateral Epididymal Cyst in 65 Years – Old Man – A Case Report

Abstract

Smooth, extratesticular, spherical cysts in the head of the epididymis are common in adult men. Men are most likely to develop these cysts around the age of 40. Children rarely get them before they become teenagers. It’s hard to give an exact percentage of men who have Epididymal cysts because, most people who have them don’t even know it, but some studies have shown that about 1 in 6 men have them1 . Here in, we report bilateral epididymal cyst in a 65 year –old man. He was admitted to Shalya department with symptoms of Hydrocele and acute B/ L scrotum. There was no history of trauma or infection. B/L Epididymal cyst was diagnosed on ultrasonographic evaluation. Medical treatment did not stop his scrotal pain. During exploration there was B/L epididymal cyst with B/L hydrocele. An excision of cyst was performed.
