Multicystic recurrence of hydrocele testis after sclerosing with polidocanol followed by spontaneous cure.
Scrotal ultrasound has been used to confirm the resolution of hydrocele testis after sclerosing with different solutions, and so, early recurrences with a multicystic appearance were occasionally observed. This finding was considered a complication of the sclerosant treatment needing a surgical option [1]. We have observed that a multilocular recurrence of hydrocele after percutaneous sclerosing with polidocanol is frequently followed by spontaneous cure.
