OBJECTIVES To report one case of metastatic paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma in a 14 years old patient, classified as stage IIb (IRSG). METHODS After treatment with radical surgery (orchiectomy and lymphadenectomy), polychemotherapy and radiotherapy, showed good evolution initially. RESULTS 12 months after surgery the patient is disease free. CONCLUSIONS Adjuvant treatment is very importan...

Mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis testis (MTVT) is a rare tumor that usually affects patients after the sixth decade of life. Exposure to asbestos is a known risk factor. Enlargement of the scrotal volume is the most common initial clinical manifestation, and about 15% of cases present metastasis at diagnosis. The treatment relies on surgical resection while the role of adjuvant chemotherapy...

Paratesticular fibrous pseudotumors (PFPs) are rare pathologies with quite wide and variable topographic-morphological features. It is difficult to distinguish PFPs from malignant masses. Treatment can be done by resection of the mass. We reported a young patient's findings about this rare pathology.

Introduction. Liposarcoma is a rare pathological entity. By far it is the most common histological subtype of genitourinary sarcomas in adults. Approximately two hundred cases were reported in the literature. We are hereby presenting a case with a typical clinical scenario of paratesticular liposarcoma. Case report. A 75-year-old gentleman presented with a painless right hemiscrotal swelling th...

Adenomatoid tumor (AT) is an extremely rare benign tumor in the testis of infants. A case of 14-month-old boy with testicular adenomatoid tumor was reported in this study. On physical examination, a smooth solid nodule sized 8 mm could be palpated with little tenderness on the head of the right testis. It could be clearly revealed by B ultrasonic scanning and computerized tomography. The patien...

Several clinicopathological illnesses impact the testis and paratesticular area, which are divided into non-neoplastic neoplastic diseases. Despite availability of imaging tumor marker testing, histopathological examination is primary method for diagnosing testicular lesions. Common indications orchidectomy lesions cryptorchidism, epididymitis torsion. Few non- present as mimickers neoplasm wit...

Primary tumors arising from the spermatic cord are very rare. Mesothelioma derives from the mesothelial cells lining the serous membrane, such as the pleura, peritoneum, and tunica vaginalis of testis. Paratesticular malignant mesothelioma (MM), which usually presents as a hydrocele or intrascrotal mass, accounts for 0.3% to 1.4% of MMs. MMs of the spermatic cord account for less than 10% of pa...

Background: Paratesticular tumors (PTs) are very uncommon, accounting for almost 5% of intrascrotal tumors. Of these, adenomatoid (ATs) represent about 30% and most frequently arise in the tail epididymis. Ultrasound (US) examination is first-choice imaging method employed evaluation scrotum. Unfortunately, there no specific US-imaging features useful distinguishing an AT from a malignant lesio...

OBJECTIVE To study and review spermatic cord sarcomas, including symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment. METHODS/RESULTS We review the Spanish and international literature and report 4 new cases: 2 patients with well-differentiated spermatic cord liposarcomas (1 treated by simple tumorectomy), 1 patient with liposarcomatous degeneration of a previously excised atypical lipoma, and 1 patient opera...
