Abstract

Abdominoscrotal hydrocele is a rare condition where a large hydrocele is connected to a preperitoneal space through the inguinal canal. We present a case of a young male with an abdominoscrotal hydrocele who showed gross absence of an epididymis upon hydrocele removal. Upon pathological examination, epididymal tissue was found to be incorporated into the wall of the hydrocele sac.
