Hydrocele of the canal of Nuck is a mobile mass entity that can be difficult to locate and excise. We report the use of ultrasound scan and a hookwire needle to localize and stabilize this mass, making its excision easier.
A 24-year-old white female presented with a 6-month history of a painful vulvar mass associated with increased discomfort with prolonged standing. Thorough evaluation revealed a suspected hydrocele that was easily palpable in the standing position but not in the lithotomy position. Translabial ultrasonography and a hookwire needle were used to localize and stabilize the mobile vulvar mass, eliminating the need for extensive surgical exploration.
Ultrasound scanning and needle localization is a useful technique to identify and stabilize a mobile mass, making its surgical excision possible without extensive exploration and trauma.
努克管鞘膜积液是一种可移动的肿块，定位和切除可能存在困难。我们报告使用超声扫描和带钩钢丝针来定位并固定该肿块，使其切除更容易。
一名24岁白人女性，有6个月的疼痛性外阴肿块病史，长时间站立会增加不适感。全面评估发现一个疑似鞘膜积液，站立位时很容易摸到，但截石位时摸不到。经阴唇超声检查和带钩钢丝针用于定位并固定可移动的外阴肿块，无需进行广泛的手术探查。
超声扫描和针定位是识别和固定可移动肿块的有用技术，无需广泛探查和创伤即可进行手术切除。
