[[File:Figure 28 01 02.jpg|thumb|Scrotal anatomy]]&lt;br /&gt;
*Accumulation of fluid around the testis&lt;br /&gt;
*Most common cause of painless scrotal swelling in children&lt;br /&gt;
**Secondary to persistent processus vaginalis&lt;br /&gt;
*Most are right sided&lt;br /&gt;
*Most resorb by 18-24 months of age&lt;br /&gt;
*Acute symptomatic hydroceles are not benign, require workup&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Differential Diagnosis==&lt;br /&gt;
{{Testicular DDX}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Evaluation==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Ultrasonography of hydrocele.jpg|thumb|Scrotal ultrasound of a 10 cm large hydrocele, with anechoic (dark) fluid surrounding the testicle.]]&lt;br /&gt;
*+Transillumination&lt;br /&gt;
*Consider [[testicular ultrasound]]&lt;br /&gt;

==Management==&lt;br /&gt;
*None indicated&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Disposition==&lt;br /&gt;
*Referral to urologist&lt;br /&gt;
*Hydroceles that persisted &amp;gt;1 year or in patients &amp;gt;18 months should undergo ultrasonography to rule out tumor vs inflammatory etiology&lt;br /&gt;
