Testiküler epidermoid kist olgusu: Sonografik ve histopatolojik bulgular

Testiküler epidermoid kist benign, non-teratomatöz bir tümördür. Hastalar tipik olarak ağrısız ve hassas olmayan testiküler kitle ile başvururlar. Preoperatif ultrasonografi, normal biyokimyasal tümör belirteçleri ile birlikte başlıca tanı prosedürüdür. Kesin tanı histopatolojiktir. Bu olgu sunumunda inguinal orşiektomiye giden 27 yaşındaki bir epidermoid kist hastasının sonografik ve histopatolojik bulgularını sunduk.

Case of testicular epidermoid cyst: Sonographic and histopathologic findings

Testicular epidermoid cyst is a benign, non-teratomatous tumour. Patients typically present with a painless and non-tender, testicular mass. Preoperative ultrasound is major diagnostic procedure combining with normal biochemical tumour markers. The certain diagnosis is histopathological. We present the sonographic and histopathological findings of a 27-year-old male patient with epidermoid cyst who underwent inguinal orchiectomy in this case report.
