Abstract:
A thirty-three-year-old man presented with a hard testicular mass considered preoperatively to be a malignant testicular tumor. Frozen section revealed calcific granulomatous orchitis, which does not appear to have been previously described in man. Granulomatous orchitis is an important differential diagnosis of testicular lesions. The hard nature of this particular lesion contributed to the preoperative diagnosis of malignancy.
