Bilateral giant spermatocele mimicking an intrascrotal mass

Abstract

Abstract

Spermatocele is a rare condition causing a large scrotal mass, pain, and disturbance. A 45-year-old patient had complaints of scrotal pain, tenderness, and swelling of three-year history. On palpation, there were multiple bilateral, firm masses. Scrotal ultrasonographic examination showed fluid-filled cystic masses in multilocular spaces measuring 57x30 mm on the right, and 84x59 mm on the left. Bilateral scrotal exploration was performed and 11 spermatoceles on the left side, and six on the right side were completely excised. The patient was discharged on the first postoperative day. At one-month follow-up, no complications or recurrence were observed.
