Benign Paratesticular Fibrous Pseudotumor in a Young Male: A Case Report

Paratesticular fibrous pseudotumor (PFPs) is an uncommon intra-scrotal mass that originated from tunica vaginalis and resulted in a reactive fibrous proliferation after a history of inflammation, infection, trauma, or hydrocele. We report here on a case of a 17-year-old man with a mass in the hemiscrotum that was found to be PFP in the orchidectomy specimen pathologic examination. The diagnosis of PFPs, before and during the operation, can be complicated despite it being a benign tumor. Radical orchidectomy is usually performed for these types of lesions. A frozen section intraoperatively is essential to avoid unnecessary radical orchidectomy and preserve testicle.
