Detailed explanation-1: -A hydrocele (HI-droe-seel) is a type of swelling in the scrotum, the pouch of skin that holds the testicles. This swelling happens when fluid collects in the thin sac that surrounds a testicle. Hydroceles are common in newborns. They often go away without treatment by age 1.
Detailed explanation-2: -A hydrocele is an accumulation of serous fluid in a body cavity. A hydrocele testis, the most common form of hydrocele, is the accumulation of fluids around a testicle. It is often caused by fluid collecting within a layer wrapped around the testicle, called the tunica vaginalis, which is derived from peritoneum.
Detailed explanation-3: -While hydroceles are fluid-filled sacs, hematoceles are sacs filled with blood. A hematocele is usually associated with trauma or injury.
