Abstract

Ultrasonography is the modality of choice for locating and characterizing palpable testicular lesions. Extratesticular palpable lumps are more common than intratesticular ones, and most of them are cystic. In the testis, cystic lesions represent a subset of intratesticular lesions, of which the majority are benign. It is important for the practicing sonologist to recognize this benign subset of lesions and prevent unnecessary surgical exploration.
