A member asked:
I know i have a varciocele, and i also have a lump in the top of my testicle. could this be a spermatocele that has been caused by the varciocele?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Here are some...: Varicocele is varicose veins of pampiniform venous plexus of spermatic vein, which present in some 15% of men with 90% of them on left side and 10% on both sides; spermattocele is cyst(s) of epididymides, which contain light milk-colored fluid with sperms, usually at the head of epididymides. So, both are unrelated in origin and structure. More? Ask doc, preferably urologist. Best wish...
