A hydrocele is a fluid-filled sac around a testicle that causes swelling in the scrotum. It is common in newborns and can also occur in adult men, often due to injury, infection, or inflammation. While usually painless, a hydrocele may cause discomfort or heaviness and can sometimes indicate underlying issues that need medical attention.
We provide safe, effective treatment options for hydrocele, including conservative monitoring for mild cases and minimally invasive surgery (hydrocelectomy) for larger or symptomatic cases. Our procedures ensure complete removal of the fluid buildup with minimal downtime.
We confirm the condition with painless imaging to rule out other scrotal issues like hernias or tumors.
Our expert surgeons perform small-incision hydrocele removal with quick healing and reduced discomfort.
The surgery typically takes less than an hour and is done as a day-care procedure with same-day discharge.
Treatment eliminates the fluid collection, providing comfort and a normal scrotal appearance.
Timely treatment prevents infection, testicular damage, or recurrence due to chronic hydroceles.
We prioritize privacy, dignity, and patient education throughout diagnosis, surgery, and recovery.
In adults, it can be caused by injury, infection, or inflammation. In newborns, it's usually due to a natural opening in the abdomen not closing properly.
In infants, it may resolve within a year. In adults, persistent hydroceles typically require surgical correction.
No, it is performed under local or general anesthesia. Post-surgery discomfort is mild and managed with medications.
Most patients resume routine activities within 3–5 days, with complete recovery in 1–2 weeks.
It's a low-risk procedure. Minor swelling or bruising may occur temporarily, but serious complications are rare.
Since the procedure is precise and minimally invasive, the chances of infection are significantly lower.
