Epidermoid cyst of the testis: a case report

Epidermoid cyst of the testis is an uncommon benign tumour, with an overall incidence of 1-2 % of all resected testicular masses. When imaging finding s suggest that an intratesticular mass is likely to be an epidermoid cyst, conservative management (enucleation with testicular preservation) can be p erformed rather than orchidectomy, This case report records an epidermoid c yst in a 12-year-old boy in whom the US findings allowed testis-sparing sur gery instead of orchidectomy.
