Summary:To report a case of paratesticular tumor involving the right testis. A middle-aged male with a small paratesticular tumor involving the right testis is described. Treatment was by transscrotal surgical excision. The histological analysis of the surgical specimen disclosed a mesothelial tumor and no evidence of malignancy. Although the preoperative diagnosis of adenomatoid tumor is relatively simple when the epididymis is involved, localization in the testis is relatively difficult to determine. Surgical exploration of all intrascrotal and intratesticular tumors are advocated due to the risk of malignancy.
