The epidermoid cyst of the testis represents about 1% of all testicle tumours. The average age of presentation ranges from the second and the fourth decade of life. Its clinical features do not differ from those of a testis malignancy. Preliminary clinical and laboratory findings do not determine the diagnosis. The Authors report a case and review the Literature (about 150 cases up to 1985). Therapeutic strategy is also discussed: orchiectomy or simple removal of the cyst.
