Helping you understand Our healthcare
A hydrocelectomy is a minor surgical procedure to remove or repair a hydrocele — a fluid-filled sac surrounding the testicle, which causes swelling in the scrotum.
This procedure is typically recommended for adult men or infants with persistent or large hydroceles that cause discomfort, pain, cosmetic concerns, or interfere with daily activities.
No. It’s a minor, daycare procedure usually done under local or spinal anesthesia. Most patients return home the same day.
The procedure typically takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the size and type of hydrocele.
Most patients resume normal light activities within 3–5 days. Full recovery usually occurs in 2–4 weeks.
