| Abstract | ||
| Dermoid cyst of the spermatic cord is an extremely rare pathological state seen at the general surgery and the urological clinic. We present a case of a 19-year old male who presented with a painless left groin lump, irreducible, and no cough impulse from childhood, both testes presented in the scrotum and normal in size and shape. From the history, physical examination, ultrasound examination, we thought it was a lipoma , a hydrocele of the spermatic cord, or irreducible inguinal hernia. During the operation , suspicion of a dermoid cyst of spermatic cord occurred from a sebum and hair which discharged from the cyst during dissection of the cyst from spermatic cord. The final histopathological analysis established the diagnosis of dermoid cyst of spermatic cord. | ||
