testicular cyst
Introduction
Introduction to testicular cyst Testicular cysts, often occurring in the testicular head or epididymis, contain a large amount of sperm in the cyst, medically known as semen cysts. The testicular cyst, which is the volume of the semen cyst, tends to be large, with little or no pain. Sometimes the cyst is too large, causing testicular pain and forcing the patient to seek medical attention. The cyst can form in the scrotum, it can grow very large without any discomfort, but still ask the doctor to check for a tumor. Cysts can occur in men of any age, and the disease is most common in men over 40 years of age. Generally, it is asymptomatic, and sometimes there is a scrotal discomfort or a feeling of falling, and sometimes there is a case where the scrotum is swollen. In general, testicular cysts do not require treatment and surgical resection may be used if necessary. basic knowledge The proportion of illness: 0.001% Susceptible people: good for men Mode of infection: non-infectious Complications: varicocele prostatitis nephritis
Cause
Causes of testicular cysts
Cyst (25%):
The cyst can form in the scrotum, it can grow very large without any discomfort, but still ask the doctor to check for a tumor. Cysts can occur in men of any age, and the disease is most common in men over 40 years of age.
Scrotal water cyst (20%):
It means that a clear and thin liquid accumulates in the testicle and between the outer coverings, which can cause swelling. If the swelling is large or painful, it may be necessary to withdraw the fluid with a needle under local anesthesia. If relapsed, a minor surgery may be needed.
Orchitis (15%):
Orchitis often causes swelling of one or both testicles and should be treated. If diagnosed, the doctor will give painkillers to relieve the pain.
Testicular torsion (10%):
When the testicles are twisted, the patient will find a painful mass around the testicle on one or both sides. This disease can occur at any time and may be accompanied by nausea and vomiting.
Internal testicular injury (5%):
Injury inside the testicles on both sides may be the cause of testicular swelling. This condition may require hospitalization and surgical treatment if needed.
Prevention
Testicular cyst prevention
1. Pay attention to rest, work and rest, and orderly life.
2, the diet should be reasonable: a reasonable mix of diet, eat less pigs, cattle, sheep and other high-cholesterol meat, prevent high cholesterol food intake. Patients can eat more chickens, fish and other low cholesterol containing meat can effectively prevent the emergence of disease.

4, rest should be appropriate: pay attention to work and rest, do not be too tired, keep the stool smooth.
Complication
Testicular cyst complications Complications , varicocele, prostatitis, nephritis
1. Inducing serious diseases: varicocele, sedative, prostatitis, endocrine diseases, nephritis and other kidney diseases, urinary infections, malignant tumors, etc.
2. Lead to male sexual decline, or even complete loss of sexual function.
Third, leading to death, no sperm, loss of fertility, and transmission of inflammatory pathogens to spouses, causing gynecological diseases.
4. Testicular disease for a long time to cure the loss of kidney loss, vital energy loss, limb cold, back pain, early aging.
Symptom
Symptoms of testicular cysts Common symptoms Scrotal edema Scrotum swelling Scrotum scrotal pain Scrotum falling testicular tenderness Testicular drooping
1. Generally asymptomatic, sometimes there is a scrotal discomfort or a feeling of falling, and sometimes there is a situation in which the scrotum is swollen.
2. The testicle or epididymis touches a round mass, soft texture, fluctuating, clear boundaries, and the compression does not shrink.
Examine
Examination of testicular cysts
1. The light transmission test is positive. The cyst puncture fluid is milky white, opaque, and there are inactive sperm and fat bodies in the microscopic examination. After being placed at room temperature for a short period of time, the original inactive sperm in the liquid becomes active.
2. B-ultrasound can be found in the dark areas of the testis or epididymis.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis and differentiation of testicular cyst
Diagnostic criteria
1. Generally asymptomatic, sometimes there is a scrotal discomfort or a feeling of falling, and sometimes there is a situation in which the scrotum is swollen.
2. The testicle or epididymis touches a round mass, soft texture, fluctuating, clear boundaries, and the compression does not shrink.
3. The light transmission test is positive. The cyst puncture fluid is milky white, opaque, and there are inactive sperm and fat bodies in the microscopic examination. After being placed at room temperature for a short period of time, the original inactive sperm in the liquid becomes active.
4. B-ultrasound: liquid dark areas can be found in the testis or epididymis.
Differential diagnosis
1. Chronic epididymitis: generally the entire epididymis is enlarged or only small nodules in the tail, hard, sometimes can be touched to thicken the vas deferens.
2. spermatic hydrocele: a cystic mass in the scrotum, oval or fusiform, located in the spermatic cord.
3.Yong syndrome: double epididymal head is enlarged or cystic, and the proximal end of the epididymis is 1~1.5 cm. There is no abnormality in the tail and vas deferens, but this disease is associated with chronic respiratory infection with bilateral epididymis progressiveness. Azoospermia caused by obstruction.
