Surgery for Hydrocele

Surgery for Hydrocele

Hydrocele surgery is a procedure performed to remove fluid-filled sac surrounding the testicle, causing swelling in the scrotum. This condition is usually painless but can become uncomfortable if the hydrocele grows large.

Indications for Surgery

  • Persistent or large hydroceles causing discomfort.
  • Infections or recurrent hydroceles.
  • Hydroceles associated with underlying testicular conditions.

Procedure Overview

  • Anesthesia: The surgery is typically performed under local, regional, or general anesthesia.
  • Incision: A small incision is made in the scrotum.
  • Drainage: The fluid is drained from the hydrocele sac.
  • Resection or Repair: The hydrocele sac is removed and folded into itself to prevent recurrence
  • Closure: The incision is closed with sutures.

Recovery

  • Most patients can go home the same day.
  • Mild discomfort, swelling, and bruising are common for a few days.
  • Complete recovery usually takes about 1 to 2 weeks.
  • Patients are advised to avoid strenuous activity and heavy lifting during recovery.

Risks and Complications

  • Infection
  • Bleeding or hematoma
  • Recurrence of hydrocele
  • Injury to surrounding structures (rare)

Post-operative Care

  • Pain management with prescribed medications.
  • Use of supportive underwear to minimize swelling.
  • Keeping the incision site clean and dry.
  • Follow-up appointment to monitor healing.

Outcomes

  • Hydrocele surgery has a high success rate, with most patients experiencing complete resolution of symptoms and minimal risk of recurrence.
