Patient's question:
My little baby prefers the testicles not in a single location, one high and one low, with fluid accumulation on the right side.Doctor's answer:
Hydrocele is commonly classified into three types: inguinal hydrocele, testicular hydrocele, and communicating hydrocele. First, it is important to diagnose the type of hydrocele. Inguinal or testicular hydroceles may resolve spontaneously in infancy, so immediate surgical intervention may not be necessary for children. If the hydrocele is a communicating hydrocele, surgical treatment is required, but the timing of the surgery should be determined. If the hydrocele presents as a small lump with low tension, treatment may not be urgent.
