Can Urol Assoc J. 2009 Aug;3(4):E29-E30. doi: 10.5489/cuaj.1136.

Abstract

Dermoid cyst of the spermatic cord is an extremely rare pathology seen at the urological clinic. We present the case of a 26-year-old man who presented with a groin lump, thought to be a lipoma or a hydrocoele of the cord. The final histopathological analysis established the diagnosis of a dermoid cyst.
