YES! Hydrocele is specifically an Urological problem, but it is being dealed by both Urologists and General Surgeons. Hydrocele is of many types ( congenital/communicating, Acquired/non communicating{ primary( infantile,encysted vaginal)/ secondary} etc. What ever the types, treatment of this problem is commonly surgery ( like Herniotomy, depending on the size of the sac ( Lord's procedure/jaboulay's procedure or even for very large size scrotoplasty+excision of the sac +Jaboulay's). Some other forms of treatment modality are available like Aspiration and sclerotherapy which is basically for those surgically unfit patients. For more details patients need to consult the Surgeon.
