Paratesticular Solitary Fibrous Pseudotumor and a Brief Literature Review
Journal Title: Journal of Urological Surgery - Year 2019, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
A 19-year-old male patient was admitted to our clinic with a left-sided scrotal painless mass. Ultrasonography of the scrotum revealed a paratesticular mass arising from the left testicular sac. Surgical excision of the mass was performed. Intraoperative frozen section evaluation revealed a benign fibrous tumor. Microscopically, the specimen was composed of eosinophilic cytoplasmic tumor cells with spindle nucleus on a fibrous connective tissue ground. It is important to diagnose correctly this rare condition preoperatively or intraoperatively to avoid unnecessary orchiectomies. We present this case report to increase awareness and knowledge with the support of a brief literature review.
