Abstract

Epidermoid cyst of the testis is relatively rare and accounts for less than 1% of all testicular neoplasms. This condition usually occurs in young men and it is mostly detected by self-examination or routine physical examination. The case of a 27-year-old male with an epidermoid cyst of the testis is discussed. The diagnosis was based on ultrasonography and management was with testicular-sparing surgery. At 2-year follow-up, the patient had had no relapse or metastasis. In epidermoid cysts of the testis, high-frequency ultrasonography is a reliable diagnostic imaging method. Organ-preserving surgery is recommended in the management of these lesions.
