Abstract
One of the most prevalent disorders in the world today is hydrocele. Treatments for hydrocele have included surgical techniques since ancient times. The study's objective was to examine the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and surgical treatment of primary vaginal hydrocele in adults (over the age of 12). The Institutional Ethics Committee authorised the research. All patients and their families provided written, informed consent. From the patient's admission day until their release, as well as throughout the follow‐up period, a proforma was completed. Routine tests, such as hemograms, random blood sugar tests, blood for TC, DC, and ESR and scrotal ultrasounds, were performed in each instance. One patient had surgery under local anaesthesia, whereas the majority of patients had spinal anaesthesia. Depending on the size of the hydrocele sac, either Lord's plication or Jaboulay's treatment was chosen for the 80 patients who had open surgery. The largest numbers of instances were observed in the 20‐29 age group, followed by that in the 30‐39 age group, and the lowest number of cases were seen in the 70‐79 age group. The youngest patient was 16 years old, while the oldest patient was 75 years old. There are almost comparable numbers of instances across the majority of vocations, suggesting that hydrocele is not a profession‐specific condition. These two surgical techniques had low rates of recurrence, were inexpensive, simple to execute, and very safe. Compared to Jaboulay's method, Lord's procedure has a lower incidence of post‐operative problems.
