A rare tumour of a prepubertal child, an epidermoid cyst, was excised with testicular preservation. Childhood testicular tumours are usually benign. Although epidermoid cysts of the testis may have teratomatous component, testicular teratomas are generally benign in the prepubertal child. For these reasons testis sparing surgery seems applicable in childhood epidermoid cysts.
一名青春期前儿童的罕见肿瘤——表皮样囊肿被切除，同时保留了睾丸。儿童期睾丸肿瘤通常是良性的。虽然睾丸表皮样囊肿可能有畸胎瘤成分，但睾丸畸胎瘤在青春期前儿童中一般是良性的。基于这些原因，保留睾丸手术似乎适用于儿童期表皮样囊肿。
