Urology Consultation

Hydrocele

Ultrasound is used by board-certified urologists to confirm a hydrocele, and same-day hydrocelectomy is available to relieve discomfort, reduce cosmetic bulging, and lower infection risk.

What are the options?

A hydrocele is a fluid-filled sac that surrounds the testicle, leading to one-sided or sometimes bilateral scrotal swelling. While usually painless, the added weight can cause discomfort over time, and chronic fluid buildup may conceal underlying tumours or infections.

Ultrasound Only

Best for small, symptom-free hydroceles, with annual scans to ensure no tumour is present.

Ultrasound Only

Needle Aspiration

Provides temporary relief for men unfit for surgery, but carries a high recurrence rate within six months.

Needle Aspiration

Open Hydrocelectomy

The standard treatment for sacs under 5 cm, typically done in 30 minutes with a small scar.

Open Hydrocelectomy

Endoscopic Hydrocelectomy

Ideal for very large or recurrent sacs, using a smaller incision for quicker drainage and recovery.

Frequently asked questions

Is hydrocelectomy painful?

Discomfort is minimal. A local block is used during surgery, and any mild ache afterward is usually controlled with standard NSAIDs.

How soon can I return to work?

Most men return to office work within 2–3 days, while manual labour or heavy lifting should wait 10–14 days.

Will the surgery affect fertility?

No. The testicle itself is untouched, and sperm quality remains unchanged.

Can a hydrocele turn into cancer?

No, but fluid can mask underlying tumours, which is why yearly ultrasound is recommended if left untreated.

What if fluid returns?

Recurrence is rare, but if more than 20 mL re-accumulates, a free revision is offered within 12 months.
