Bilateral epidermoid cysts of the testis: report of a case with preservation of 1 testis.
Epidermoid cysts of the testis are rare, benign lesions. Of approximately 200 reported cases only 1 was bilateral. We report a case of bilateral epidermoid cysts treated with preservation of a testis. Diagnostic criteria, ultrasound evaluation and surgical management are discussed. The potential for testicular conservation is emphasized.
