ABSTRACT

The low incidence of testicular epidermoid cyst (1-2 percent of all testicular tumors), makes ultrasound findings the key to making, or at least suggesting, a precise preoperative diagnosis, thus making a conservative treatment possible. We present two cases with ultrasound diagnosis of epidermoid cyst, confirmed later after surgery. We review the literature, emphasizing the evaluation of the ultrasound images and their correlation with the anatomopathological findings.


La escasa incidencia del quiste epidermoide de testículo (1-2 por ciento de todos los tumores testiculares), hace de los hallazgos ecográficos la clave para realizar o al menos sugerir un diagnóstico prequirúrgico preciso, haciendo por tanto posible un tratamiento conservador. Presentamos dos casos con diagnóstico ecográfico de quiste epidermoide, confirmado posteriormente tras cirugía. Realizamos una revisión de la bibliografía, enfatizando en la valoración de las imágenes ecográficas y su correlación con los hallazgos anatomopatológicos.
