Surgery may be recommended if your hydrocele is large or uncomfortable.. The fluid is then drained from around the testicle ... The passage between the abdomen and the scrotum will also be sealed off so the fluid cannot re-form in the future. This is a minor operation and is performed as a day case, so does not usually involve an overnight stay in the hospital. A hydrocele may return after surgery but this is very uncommon.
