Abstract:
Testicular adrenal rest tumor (TART) is frequently complicated by congenital adrenal hyperplasia, which is a benign tumor of the testes frequently found in adolescents and adults.Palpation and scrotal ultrasound are the main diagnostic methods for TART.Poorly managed TART often results in testicular dysfunction or even infertility due to tumor compression.This article reviews the pathogenesis, epidemiology, clinical features, diagnosis, differential diagnosis and treatment of TART, thus improving the understanding of the disease to achieve early diagnosis, early treatment, and improved prognosis.
