OBJECTIVES Tumors and tumor-like lesions (TLL) of the paratesticular region are rare. Very few studies depicting the spectrum of lesions of this location are available in the literature. Malignant neoplasms arising in the paratesticular region represent only 7.0% of malignant tumors presenting as a scrotal mass. TLL and benign tumors are of great interest, because of their topography they can s...

OBJECTIVE Paratesticular tumors, which comprise a heterogeneous group of entities, are often described in case reports in the literature. In this study, we present histomorphological, immunohistochemical and clinical features of six cases with paratesticular sarcoma. MATERIAL AND METHODS Six cases with paratesticular sarcoma diagnosed in our hospital between 1997 and 2012 were included in thi...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Current management options for low-stage mixed malignant germ-cell testicular tumors (MMGCT) after radical orchiectomy include surveillance, chemotherapy, or retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND). The open RPLND is the surgical gold standard and has been duplicated laparoscopically with confirmed diagnostic effectiveness; however, its therapeutic oncologic value i...

We describe a case of simultaneous bilateral paratesticular neuroblastoma presenting as spermatic cord tumors in a 6-month-old boy. He was diagnosed as having stage IV neuroblastoma originated from right adrenal gland with metastases to the paratesticular region, right femur, and right maxilla. The tumor showed favorable biological features according to Shimada’s classification and had no N-myc...

Paratesticular LPS of the spermatic cord are rare tumor, accounting for about 7% of all paratesticular sarcomas [2]. Until date, about 200 cases have been reported in literature, most being reported as isolated cases; hence, the natural history and biological behavior of this rare tumor are less understood [3,4]. Most patients usually present with a slowly growing painless inguinoscrotal mass m...

Paratesticular tumors are rare and often benign causes of scrotal masses. Intrascrotal angiolipomas are an uncommon paratesticular tumor that has seldom been reported in the literature. This report describes a 77 year old man who presented with a 15 cm extratesticular mass. The mass was removed due to increasing discomfort and specimen pathology confirmed it as an angiolipoma. This case highlig...

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 neop...

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 th...

Paratesticular liposarcomas are relatively common sarcomas in the paratesticular region, however, the myxoid variant; myxoid liposarcoma (MLS) is considered very rare. MLS peaks around the fourth-fifth decade. Herein, we describe a case of paratesticular MLS occurring in a 19-year-old African American male who underwent resection of a slowly growing testicular mass over a period of one and a ha...
