Abstract EN
The angiomyofibroblastoma-like tumor of the male genital tract is a rare benign tumor.
A total of 34 cases have been reported in the literature.
We herein report an exceptional case of solidocystic form in its paratesticular location, in a 79-year-old man.
Clinical examination objectified a right testicular induration.
Macroscopic examination of the orchidectomy objectified a paratesticular solidocystic tumor formation.
Microscopically, the solid area was composed of vessels with small caliber and turgidity of endothelial cells.
These vessels were surrounded by clusters of epithelioid cells, sometimes having the appearance of giant cells.
They were associated with spindle cells.
The cystic area was uncoated.
Immunohistochemically, the fusiform cells expressed Desmin and Smooth Muscle Actin.
Endothelial cells and clusters of cells surrounding large vessels expressed CD34.
The expression of receptors for estrogen and progesterone was negative.
To our knowledge, this is the second solidocystic case of angiomyofibroblastoma-like tumor of male genital tract.
