چکیده

OBJECTIVE To describe the case of a patient with paratesticular hemangiopericytoma and to perform a bibliographic review. METHODS We describe the case of a patient with paratesticular hemangiopericytoma. We conducted an exhaustive literature review in different databases to support the case discussion. RESULTS We present the case of a 64 year old male with a progressively growing mass in the right scrotum that underwent complete resection of the mass. The result of the pathology report was hemangiopericytoma / solitary fibrous tumor and we present the treatment. CONCLUSIONS We present a rare case of paratesticular hemangiopericytoma. Most of these have a benign outcome, but one must take into account the criteria of malignancy to make decisions regarding their management.
