Spermatic Cord Walthard Cyst as Inguinal Mass: CT/MRI and Immunohistochemical Correlation
This case represents the 2nd full-length, peer-reviewed report of a spermatic cord/inguinal canal Walthard cyst of this size. Compared with previous reports, our case uniquely offers comprehensive CT/MRI correlation, a complete immunophenotypic profile-including WT1 positivity with CK20 and uroplakin III negativity-and precise size documentation, thereby aiding in the prevention of misdiagnosis and overtreatment of cystic lesions in the inguinal canal of males.
