Abstract
Epidermoid cyst (EC) of the testis is a rare benign tumor without malignant potential. The diagnosis can be made on ultrasound and MRI. In case of a single small lesion, conservative surgery is possible. It requires an anatomopathological confirmation per operative. It is a constantly benign tumor that must be differentiated from testicular teratomas, justifying the search for associated tumor contingents requiring orchiectomy.
