ABSTRACT
Testicular hydroceles recurred within 6 months in 7 of 15 patients (46.7%) treated by aspiration and instillation of tetracycline. There was objective reduction in the size of the hydrocele in three patients (20%) but only five (33.3%) were cured. Severe pain was a complication in seven cases. This form of treatment is not recommended.
