چکیده
A 78-year-old male patient presented with an inguinoscrotal nodule that had lasted for 3 years. The patient reported a past medical history of hydrocele formation. The final diagnosis was fibrous pseudotumor of the paratesticular region, which was based on a histopathological examination and immunohistochemical findings. The aim of this case report is to spread awareness and recognition of neoplastic and non-neoplastic entities that occur in the paratesticular region.

Intrascrotal benign fibrous proliferations are uncommon and mostly arise from paratesticular region falling into the category of fibrous pseudotumor which is characterized by nodular growth composed of probably reactive proliferation of fibroblasts and inflammatory cells. Although benign, this often clinically mimics intrascrotal malignancy and usually remains undiagnosed preoperatively. Here, ...

Preoperatively diagnosing a fibrous pseudotumor is challenging because distinguishing these masses from malignant tumors on the basis of clinical and radiological findings can be difficult. We present a case of a 28-year-old man who presented with a painless palpable mass in the right scrotum; the fibrous pseudotumor of t...

Both pathogenesis and clinical management are little understood due to the rarity of the lesion, with less than 200 cases reported to date.

Tumors arising in the spermatic cord are very rare. The common benign tumors of the spermatic cord include adenomatoid tumor, lipoma, neurofibroma, and leiomyoma. We report a rare case of fibrous pseudotumor of the spermatic cord presenting clinically as a hydrocele. A 28-year-old male presented with the complaint of swelling in the left scrotum, which gradually progressed in size over four yea...
