Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Microlithiasis is not a common cause of hydrocele. Hydroceles are typically caused by fluid accumulation in the scrotum, which can result from trauma, infection (such as epididymo-orchitis), or conditions that disrupt normal fluid drainage (like testicular torsion). Testicular microlithiasis is a condition characterized by the presence of small calcifications within the testes and is not directly linked to the formation of hydroceles.
