[Intratesticular epithelial cyst in an infant].
We report on a 7-month-old boy with a simple cyst of the testis who was treated with excision and testicular preservation. Benign testicular tumors are more common in children than in adults (30%). Ultrasound may permit identification of benign testicular lesions. As simple cysts are isolated benign entities they may be treated by testisparing surgery.
