Overview

  • Epididymal cysts are less common than spermatoceles and are indistinguishable from the latter at US.
  • Epididymal cysts contain clear serous fluid and may arise throughout the epididymis (spermatoceles almost always arise in the epididymal head).
  • An increased incidence of epididymal cysts has been reported in boys who are exposed in utero to diethylstilbestrol.
  • Although epididymal head cysts cannot be differentiated from spermatoceles, they usually are not clinically relevant.
