“…Кисты белочной оболочки преимущественно локализуются по переднебоковой поверхности яичка, могут быть однокамерными или многокамерными [4]. Содержимое обычно представлено прозрачной жидкостью без сперматозоидов, описаны случаи кист белочной оболочки, содержащих карбонат кальция -«кальциевое молоко», псамозные тельца [7,9,10]. Киста может находиться в толще белочной оболочки яичка, может выступать с внутренней стороны белочной оболочки, вдаваясь в паренхиму яичка, или с внешней стороны, формируя хорошо пальпируемое выпячивание на поверхности белочной оболочки [11].…”

“…На сегодняшний день единый подход к ведению пациентов с кистами белочной оболочки яичка не выработан. В опубликованных наблюдениях можно проследить 3 варианта ведения пациентов с кистами белочной оболочки -динамическое наблюдение [1,14], резекция кисты [1,9,12,[17][18][19] и орхэктомия/орхофуникулэктомия [3,5,6,17,20,21].

Introduction. A cyst of the tunica albuginea of the testis is a rare benign formation, the prevalence in the male population varies from 0.3 to 0.76%. Cysts of the tunica albuginea are usually small in size from 2 to 5 mm. Clinical case. A case of a large cyst of the tunica albuginea (3.5×2.5×2.9 cm) of the left testicle in a 44-year-old man is presented. In the case presented, the cyst was probably of post-traumatic origin, since the patient had suffered a blunt trauma to the scrotum about 10 years ago. The patient complained of pain in the left half of the scrotum. An operation was performed – microsurgical excision of the cyst of the albuginea of the left testicle. Postoperative period without complications. The pain syndrome was relieved 14 days after the operation. Histological examination – a cystic formation with a connective tissue wall lined with cubic, in places ciliated epithelium. Ultrasound control after 3 months – the size of the left testicle is 4.2 * 2.7 * 1.9 (volume 11.2 cm3), the parenchyma is homogeneous. Conclusion. The presented observation demonstrates that cysts of the albuginea of the testis can reach a significant size, spreading into the testicular parenchyma. Organ-sparing treatment in symptomatic patients with large cysts of the albuginea with intraparenchymal growth allows to eliminate pain symptoms and preserve the residual testicular parenchyma. The use of microsurgical techniques may be useful in minimizing circulatory disturbance and reducing the risk of atrophic changes in the testicular parenchyma.

“…Both of the epithelial types rest on well-collagenized connective tissue. Some cysts may show psammoma bodies [42], calcifications, and fluid with small crystals of carbonate-apatite, hydroxyapatite or calcium carbonate ("milk of calcium") [43]. Focal endometriosis has been observed in a mesothelial inclusion cyst of the tunica vaginalis in a 46-year-old man who underwent a radical right-sided orchidectomy for seminoma [44].…”
