Diagnostic challenges and surgical options for cysts of the canal of Nuck in adults: Two cases report

These 2 cases emphasize that the possibility of hydrocele of the canal Nuck should be taken into account when discovering a female groin mass. Ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging are conducive to diagnosis, but the diagnosis also needs intraoperative findings and postoperative pathology. For this disease, surgical treatment is the first choice.For cyst of the canal of Nuck type I, transabdominal preperitoneal patch implantation is recommended. When cyst of the canal of Nuck type III is found under laparoscopy and it is difficult to simply use laparoscopic dissection, a small auxiliary incision can be made in the inguinal region to preserve the round ligament of the uterus and completely peel off the cyst.

Abstract

These 2 cases emphasize that the possibility of hydrocele of the canal Nuck should be taken into account when discovering a female groin mass. Ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging are conducive to diagnosis, but the diagnosis also needs intraoperative findings and postoperative pathology. For this disease, surgical treatment is the first choice.For cyst of the canal of Nuck type I, transabdominal preperitoneal patch implantation is recommended. When cyst of the canal of Nuck type III is found under laparoscopy and it is difficult to simply use laparoscopic dissection, a small auxiliary incision can be made in the inguinal region to preserve the round ligament of the uterus and completely peel off the cyst.
