Abstract:
A case of a testicular venous hemangioma is presented. A 65-year-old man complained of left testicular swelling. Physical examination and ultrasonography revealed a 2.0 x 1.6 x 1.5 cm roundish, well demarcated isoechoic elastic hard tumor in the left testis. No other abnormal findings including tumor markers were observed. Since preoperative examination did not rule out malignancy, we performed left high orchiectomy. Pathological diagnosis was a venous hemangioma of the left testis. Venous hemangioma is a rare entity among the testicular solid lesions.
