This review covers common solid and complex extratesticular masses in children. Rapidly growing, painless masses may indicate rhabdomyosarcoma, requiring biopsy or removal.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatric Radiology
  • Pediatric Pathology

Background:

  • Extratesticular masses in children can be challenging to diagnose.
  • Distinguishing between benign and malignant extratesticular masses is crucial for appropriate management.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the sonographic and pathologic features of common solid and complex extratesticular masses in children.
  • To aid in the differential diagnosis of these masses.

Main Methods:

  • Review of sonographic images and corresponding pathologic findings.
  • Correlation of imaging features with histological diagnoses.

Main Results:

  • Sonography plays a key role in evaluating extratesticular masses.
  • Rhabdomyosarcoma is a significant concern for rapidly growing, painless masses.

  • Inflammatory conditions can mimic malignant extratesticular masses.

    • Conclusions:

    • Solid or complex extratesticular masses, particularly rapidly growing and painless ones, raise concern for malignant rhabdomyosarcoma.
    • Mimickers include inflammatory processes like pseudotumor, chronic epididymitis, or meconium periorchitis.
    • Sonography alone cannot reliably differentiate benign from malignant masses; biopsy or excision is recommended for worrisome lesions.
