A case of mesothelial cyst at the inguinal region

A 54-year-old man presented with the left inguinal swelling. The operation was performed with diagnosis of the hydrocele of spermatic cord. A tumor was 3.0 cm x 2.5 cm in size, cystic with yellowish serous fluid. After the operation, this tumor is diagnosed as mesothelial cyst through the histopathologic examination. This is a rare case, however it is worth to consider that there is a possibility to be a mesothelial cyst when the tumor has been found at the inguinal region.     

A case of malignant peritoneal mesothelioma presenting with bilateral swelling of spermatic cord

A 67-year-old man had pain and swelling in the bilateral inguinal region. His past medical history included non-alcoholic steatohepatitis and liver cirrhosis. A clinical examination revealed a solid mass that was palpable along with the bilateral spermatic cord from the external inguinal ring to the root of the scrotum. Other than a hydrocele in the right testis, the epididymis and testes were intact. Abdominal computed tomography showed ascites and a solid tumor of the bilateral spermatic cord. Magnetic resonance imaging findings did not suggest malignancy, while antibiotics showed no effects. The patient wanted relief from the inguinal pain and a bilateral high orchiectomy was performed, during which time the spermatic cord was found firmly adhered to the surrounding tissue, and could not be completely resected. A histopathological examination showed epithelial mesothelioma. For additional examination of the ascites, the patient underwent paracentesis, which revealed an extremely high level of hyaluronic acid. Our working diagnosis was peritoneal malignant mesothelioma that had infiltrated the bilateral spermatic cord. We began systemic chemotherapy treatment with pemetrexed and cisplatin, but, the patient died 3 months after the operation.

Sparganosis presenting as spermatic cord hydrocele in six-year-old boy

Sparganosis is a zoonosis that can involve many different areas of the human body. Urogenital sparganosis usually presents as a palpable subcutaneous nodule in the groin, labia, or scrotum. It can also present as a tumor in the epididymis and testis. However, no previous cases have been reported of it presenting as a spermatic cord hydrocele. We present a case of sparganosis with spermatic cord hydrocele in a 6-year-old boy.     

A case of metastatic tumor of spermatic cord with hydrocele from gastric cancer

A 70-year-old man, who had undergone total gastrectomy for Borrmann III gastric cancer one year previously, was referred to us with a complaint of left scrotal swelling. Physical examination showed left scrotal hydrocele and a hard nodule in the ipsilateral inguinal area. Excretory pyelography and abdominal computed tomography showed mild left hydronephrosis and no stone. A left orchiectomy was performed. The mass in the spermatic cord was 2.5 x 1.0 x 1.0 cm in size, and the pathological diagnosis was tubular adenocarcinoma, identical to that of the previous gastric cancer. Five months after orchiectomy, the patient underwent percutaneous nephrostomy to manage postrenal renal failure caused by massive metastasis of retroperitoneal lymph nodes. He died one month later. We found a total of 84 cases of metastatic tumors of the spermatic cord reported in Japan, approximately half of which were metastases from gastric cancer. In 10 cases, including ours, the tumor was accompanied by hydrocele of the scrotum or spermatic cord. Although this association is rare, cancerous lesions should be considered in the management of hydrocele.     

Lord's procedure--the best operation for hydrocele?

A prospective study was carried out to compare Lord's hydrocele operation with traditional surgical procedures. The groups of patients investigated were comparable in terms of age, period of observation, number of previous aspirations and size of hydrocele. The incidence of isolated hydrocele of the spermatic cord, as well as epididymal cysts, was lower in the patients who underwent Lord's procedure (7.2 versus 15.8%), as was the percentage of patients reporting post-operative pain for more than 3 days (4.3 versus 15.8%, p less than 0.05).     

Postoperative hydrocele testis as a complication of high ligation of internal spermatic vein

We reviewed 785 patients with varicocele testis who underwent high ligation of internal spermatic vein at Kasukabe City Hospital between 1969 and 1985, and found only 3 patients suffering from postoperative hydrocele testis. Analysis of the hydrocele content in one case revealed a high protein level, which suggested that the etiology of the hydrocele after high ligation is of lymphatic origin, so that it is important to preserve the lymphatics of spermatic cord in order to prevent postoperative hydrocele.

Spermatic cord hydatid cyst: an unusual localization

Lesions of the groin include hernia, hydrocele, spermatic cord cyst, undescended testes, lymphadenopathy, and abscess. Hydatid cysts are endemic in certain regions of the world. They are usually located in the liver, lung, spleen, brain, and kidney. Although many uncommon locations have been reported, hydatid disease has been reported 3 times in the spermatic cord. This is the first report of a child with hydatid disease in the spermatic cord. A 9-year-old boy with a spermatic cord cyst proven to be a hydatid cyst is reported.     

A case of mycotic spermatic cord abscess in a continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis patient

A 66-year-old male patient has been on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) since 1993, and was diagnosed with right hydrocele of the spermatic cord in 1998. He repeatedly developed CAPD-related bacterial peritonitis 3 times. In February 2001, hemodialysis was prescribed for treatment of mycotic peritonitis. A palpable mass was noted in the right inguinal region in October 2001 and a computed tomographic (CT) scan disclosed a 4 cm circular lesion with relatively low density and thick wall in the right inguinal region. Spermatic-orchiectomy was performed. Histological diagnosis was mycosis like Candida on the abscess wall. To our knowledge, this is the first case of spermatic cord abscess in a CAPD patient in the Japanese literature.

Abdominoscrotal hydrocele in infancy: a review and presentation of the scrotal approach for correction

PURPOSE: A simple transcrotal approach to the surgical treatment of abdominoscrotal hydrocele is presented. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Via a scrotal incision the hydrocele sac is drained and the wall is everted and plicated in the manner described by Lord. RESULTS: The hydrocele is eliminated with a decreased risk of damage to the spermatic cord and epididymis. There has been no recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: The scrotal approach to abdominoscrotal hydrocele is a simple, safe and effective method of managing this relatively uncommon problem.     

Vasitis nodosa suspected of the spermatic cord tumor: a case report]

We report a rare case of vasitis nodosa. A 54-year-old man was found to have a right spermatic cord mass during the herniorrhaphy operation. There was no history of surgical or traumatic causes. An indurated mass in the right spermatic cord was suspected to be spermatic cord tumor, and a right high orchiectomy was performed. Histological examination revealed disruption of the ductal lumen, granulomas with the sperm-like necrotic tissue and proliferation of the lymphocytes and plasma cells in the smooth muscle bundles. Pathological diagnosis was vasitis nodosa.     

Electrohydraulic nephrolithotripsy.

Torsion of the spermatic cord in the neonate should no longer be considered a clinical rarity. Effectual diagnosis is totally dependent on prompt detection of an asymptomatic, irreducible scrotal swelling that fails to transilluminate. Immediate surgical exploration is indicated. Detorsion and careful inspection for signs of circulatory return should be undertaken in every case. Frankly necrotic testes should probably be removed, but conservation of testicular tissue is otherwise strongly recommended, even in the borderline cases. After detorsion testis must be firmly fixed in proper position. Prophylactic contralateral orchiopexy appears to be advisable, unless a congenital hydrocele intervenes. Most importantly, to avert the grim prognosis this condition bears, we must continually alert our colleagues responsible for neonatal care to the possibility of torsion of the spermatic cord in the immediate postpartum examination of every newborn male infant.     

A case of metastasis of gastric cancer to spermatic cord

A 63-year-old man underwent total gastrectomy and partial resection of the transverse colon for Borrman IV gastric cancer on August 27, 1985. On August 8, 1986, 11 months after the operation, he visited our department with chief complaint of swelling of both groins. The spermatic cord was swollen to about 3 cm in diameter from both groins to inside of the scrotum and was hard as a club. The diagnosis of bilateral spermatic cord metastasis of gastric cancer was established and a biopsy was carried out. Histopathologically the diagnosis of spermatic cord metastasis of gastric cancer was confirmed.

New onset of hydroceles in boys over 1 year of age

AIM: The presentation, and medical and surgical management of all new onset non-congenital hydroceles in boys older than 1 year of age were examined. Of particular interest was the outcome of those patients who presented with a non-communicating hydrocele that developed after the first year of life and was managed conservatively. METHODS: All patients older than 12 months of age who were evaluated as outpatients with the diagnosis of hydrocele from January 1994 to January 2001 were identified. Possible risk factors and predisposing conditions were determined. For the patients who had surgical correction, surgical indications were identified. For non-surgical patients, long-term outcomes were recorded. RESULTS: A total of 302 patients older than 12 months of age with the diagnosis of new onset hydrocele were identified. Of these, 35% were non-communicating, 59% were communicating, and 6% were hydroceles of the spermatic cord. In terms of surgery, 97% of communicating hydroceles, 71% of hydroceles of the spermatic cord, and 34% of non-communicating hydroceles had operative management. Seventy patients with non-communicating hydroceles did not receive surgery and 51 (73%) were contacted for long term follow-up. In these 51 patients, 76% of non-communicating hydroceles resolved completely, 6% decreased in size but were still present, 14% remained the same size, and 4% had an unknown status. The average time to resolution was 5.6 months with a median time of 3 months. The time range to resolution was from 1 day to 24 months. Follow-up averaged 73.7 months with a range of 33 to 120 months. CONCLUSIONS: Approximately 75% of new onset, non-congenital, non-communicating hydroceles resolve spontaneously irrespective of size. An observation period of 6-12 months would be appropriate prior to repair.     

Leiomyosarcoma of the spermatic cord: a case report

A 63-year-old man presented with painless hard swelling of left scrotal contents. Left orchiectomy with high ligation of the spermatic cord was done with clinical diagnosis of testicular tumor. Histopathologically, this tumor was diagnosed as leiomyosarcoma, primarily, arising from the spermatic cord. After operation, prophylactic radiotherapy (60Co, 5,890 rad) was given locally. There has been neither local recurrence nor metastasis for 10 months after operation. This is the 18th case of leiomyosarcoma of the spermatic cord in Japan.
