The cremasteric muscle was incised and a large sac identified. This was very thin walled and had the appearance of being extremely acute. The sac was carefully freed up from the surrounding tissues, twisted and high ligation accomplished with an 0 silk followed by a 2-0 silk suture ligature. The sac was excised. The wound was then again irrigated with antibiotics after which the dermis was approximated with continuous 3-0 Vicryl and the epidermis with Steri-Strips.
