Abstract: |
|
Testicular fibroma of gonadal stromal origin is a rare benign tumor of testis, which usually presents as a slow growing
testicular mass. Intratesticular fibroma of gonadal stromal origin, with or without minor sex cord elements, must be
considered, analogous to similar tumors in ovary, as a benign tumor. Until now, only 25 cases of testicular fibroma
have been reported in the literature. We reported a case of testicular fibroma in a 20 years male who presented with
painless right testicular enlargement since two years. Ultrasonography (USG) showed heterogeneous mass in right
scrotum suggestive of testicular malignancy. Right orchidectomy was done. Histopathological diagnosis was testicular
fibroma, which was confirmed by immunohistochemistry. |
