Case description

Video case: lipomas of the cord are common and generally associated with an indirect hernia sac, but not always, as the lipoma may be the only pathology identified during groin exploration. Missed lipoma of the spermatic cord is unfortunately not infrequent and may lead to persistence of post-operative groin pain, with confirmation of unresected cord lipoma on postoperative ultrasound, often necessitating reoperation.
