Overview[edit | edit source]
Simple testicular cysts are usually nonpalpable and thus are detected incidentally. Testicular cysts require no treatment when discovered.
Imaging Findings[edit | edit source]
- On US, testicular cysts are usually well-defined and anechoic with enhanced through transmission and an imperceptible wall.
- At MR imaging, the lesion follows the signal characteristics of fluid with all pulse sequences.
- Careful inspection is warranted to differentiate these from cystic testicular neoplasms, such as cystic teratoma.
- Contrast-enhanced MR imaging aids in this diagnosis by demonstrating lack of solid enhancement in these lesions.
