Scrotal mass historical perspective
Overview
Reinforcement of the anterior wall of the inguinal canal and tightening of the external inguinal ring was first discovered by Stromayr in 1559.[1] MarcyIn 1871, used of carbolized catgut to treat inguinal hernia.[2] Twisted and suture-transfixed the peritoneal sac in the lateral muscles through the external ring was developed by Kocher to treat inguinal hernia.Laparoscopic approaches first used to treat inguinal hernias in 1992.There is a limited information about the historical perspective of testicular tumors. Leydig cells were first discovered by Franz Leydig who was a German anatomist in 1870.
