Abstract:
We report a rare case of an epididymal adenomatoid tumor in a 31-year-old man who had a slowly growing painless left scrotal mass for approximately two years. Physical examination revealed a rubbery, non-tender, 2x2cm sized mass located in the tail of the epididymis. Scrotal ultrasonography showed a 1.7x1.7cm sized isoechogenic mass inferior to the left testicle. Left epididymectomy done. The diagnosis was confirmed by a surgical excision and a subsequent histological analysis.
