title: [Epidermoid cyst of the testis. Apropos of 2 cases with one in a child].
abstract: Based on two cases of epidermoid cyst of the testes, one exceptional case was that of a four year old boy, the authors mention the absence of clinical and ultrasonic evidence to identify this benign tumor. The histological characteristics, described by Price, are quoted: intratesticular cyst, keratin sediment deposits, with a normal remaining parenchyma. Orchidectomy is the safest treatment; the tumoral enucleation or the partial orchidectomy is particularly appropriate when the opposite testes is missing or if it is functionally altered.
