The cyst of the canal of Nuck or female hydrocele, also known as a diverticulum, was described by Anthon Nuck. It is a diverticulum of parietal peritoneum which extends  into the inguinal canal with the round ligament that is usually obliterated. The cyst of Nuck represents the female part of the hydrocele in the man. This external genital pathology is a rare condition in females. We present a case and the surgical solution.
