Adenomatoid Tumor of the Tunica Albuginea in a Boy: A Case Report and Literature Review

Abstract EN

Adenomatoid tumors (AT) are the most common paratesticular neoplasms and account for approximately 30% of all paratesticular masses.

Most of them occur in the third or fourth decade and present as well-defined firm and painless masses.

We report here a case of adenomatoid tumor from tunica albuginea.

This patient is a 12-year-old boy with left testicular pain for 6 months.

Scrotal ultrasonography revealed a solid mass of paratesticular origin.

The histology and immunohistochemistry confirmed the final diagnosis.

A right tumor resection was performed.

Because of its rarity, the clinical and histopathologic appearance is seldom illustrated.

Here we present a case report and a comprehensive literature review with the objective of providing useful information on this entity.
