Abstract: | Differential diagnosis of spermatic cord swellings includes direct inguinal hernia, hydrocele, spermatocele, hematocele, lipoma, tuberculosis, and filariasis. This communication focuses attention on other unusual swellings of the spermatic cord. Three cases of sarcoma, two cases of foreign body in the spermatic cord, and one case of vasitis are presented. Although unusual, these conditions should be considered in the differential diagnosis of spermatic cord swellings. |
