The hydrocele of male testicular sheath is a common disease, and most men are caused by infection, tumor, etc. So how to check the hydrocele of male testicular tunica vaginalis?

Hydrovaginalis is a disease that seriously affects the health of men and can also lead to male infertility. Because when the male testis has hydrocele of the tunica vaginalis, it will lead to sperm quality problems, make women very pregnant, and lead to male infertility. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for men to find diseases. Only by careful observation can they find too much fluid hydrocele in the tunica vaginalis, but there is no obvious physical sign. Therefore, when you find yourself out of time, you must check and treat as soon as possible.

Causes of hydrocele of testicular tunica vaginalis

1. Infection: is the most common cause. It is usually caused by various non-specific bacteria such as tuberculosis bacillus, gonococcus, acute and chronic epididymitis, orchitis, spermatitis, vaginitis, etc. Mumps virus infection can also be caused. Parasitic infections prevalent in tropical areas, such as filariasis, can also damage the lymphatic return of the tunica vaginalis, spermatic cord and scrotum, leading to hydrocele of the tunica vaginalis.

2. Injury: It is also a common cause of symptomatic hydrocele. It is reported that 6% of patients with hydrocele of the tunica vaginalis have a history of scrotal kick, injury, fall and strain. In recent years, surgery in the scrotum is one of the reasons recognized in the abdomen and groin region. It is reported that 67% of patients have hydrocele after kidney transplantation, 35% of varicocele and 0 hernia repair, 9% - 2.28% of hydrocele are caused by stimulation of spermatic cord and injury of lymphatic vessels, such as epididymectomy and inguinal lymph node dissection.

3. Tumor: cancer in testis, epididymis, tunica vaginalis, spermatic cord and other parts can invade the tunica vaginalis, resulting in increased secretion and exudation of fluid in the tunica vaginalis, or blocking the lymphatic system.

4. Some systemic diseases, such as heart, renal failure, liver disease caused by water and sodium retention, circulatory stagnation, lymphatic reflux obstruction, can also cause hydrocele, which is mainly accompanied by edema or ascites in the whole body. In addition, benign scrotal diseases, such as testicular torsion, testicular appendage torsion, varicocele, can also induce hydrocele.
