"in the literature only one report could be found describing the MR findings of a hydrocele of the canal of Nuck; in this case, MR showed a thin-walled tense cystic mass in the inguinal area 1"

Line 29:119 · Use semicolons judiciously.

"in most, cases hydroceles are described to have a thin wall. In our example (Case 1) the hydrocele has a thick-walled cystic appearance due to infection; the proximal part of the lesion is extending into the peritoneal cavity along the route of the round ligament; the distal part is blunt and extending towards the labium majus"
