Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Oncology
  • Pathology

Background:

  • Testicular tumors are the most common scrotal neoplasms, but paratesticular neoplasms are rare, accounting for approximately 2% of cases.
  • Benign tumors constitute 70% of paratesticular neoplasms, with lipoma being a frequent subtype.

Observation:

  • A 45-year-old patient presented with scrotal complaints, exhibiting a fibroelastic scrotal tumor upon physical examination.
  • Diagnostic imaging, including ultrasound and computed axial tomography (CAT), revealed radiographic patterns consistent with fatty tissue.

Findings:

  • Complete surgical excision of the scrotal tumoration was performed.
  • Pathoanatomical study confirmed the diagnosis of paratesticular lipoma.

Implications:

  • This case contributes to the understanding of paratesticular lipoma presentation and diagnosis.
  • The study includes a literature review, offering insights into clinical, diagnostic, and therapeutic aspects of paratesticular lipomas.
