Intratesticular epidermoid cyst. A rare benign tumor. 1975

D S Dahl

Epidermoid cysts rarely arise within the testis. The incidental discovery of a distinct, intratesticular epidermoid cyst in a nineteen-year-old man is reported. Management by radical orchiectomy is stressed because grossly the tumor is indistinguishable from a malignant testicular tumor.
