Urol Case Rep. 2014 Jul 2;2(4):134-6. doi: 10.1016/j.eucr.2014.05.004. eCollection 2014 Jul.

Abstract

Fibrous pseudotumors of the testicular tunics and paratesticular tissue are uncommon lesions. They typically arise as painless scrotal masses that may be associated with hydrocele or history of surgery, trauma, or infection. Although benign, these lesions often clinically indicate malignancy and usually remain undiagnosed preoperatively. Here, we report on a 59-year-old man with fibrous pseudotumor of the tunica vaginalis associated with hydrocele and testicular atrophy.

Keywords: Fibrous pseudotumors; Paratesticular tissue; Testicular tunics.
