[Testicular epidermoid cyst].
Epidermoid cyst of the testis is a rare benign tumour. The diagnosis is strongly suggested by ultrasound and MRI. Conservative surgery is possible in the case of a small isolated lesion and requires intraoperative histological confirmation. It is a constantly benign tumour that must be distinguished from testicular teratomas, justifying the search for associated neoplastic contingents requiring orchidectomy.
