A 59-year-old man was referred to our hospital with the chief complaint of painless left scrotal swelling. He was diagnosed with left hydrocele testis and underwent puncture of hydrocele. Radical hydrocelectomy was performed because of its frequent recurrence in a short period. A hard mass was found across the spermatic cord during the operation.
