    Area of Science:

    • Urology
    • Pathology

    Background:

    • Malakoplakia is a rare acquired condition characterized by the formation of abnormal calcifications within macrophages.
    • Testicular malakoplakia is an exceptionally rare manifestation of this condition.

    Observation:

    • This report presents an additional case of malakoplakia affecting the testicle.
    • The incidence of testicular malakoplakia remains very low, with fewer than 30 cases documented globally since its initial report in 1958.

    Findings:

    • The study contributes a new case to the limited existing literature on testicular malakoplakia.
    • Reinforces the rarity of this specific clinical presentation.

    Implications:

    • Highlights the importance of considering rare diagnoses in urological pathology.
  • Further case reports are needed to better understand the pathogenesis and clinical behavior of testicular malakoplakia.
