Paratesticular Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor in a Pediatric Patient

Abstract EN

Although rare, paratesticular inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMT) represents the second most common paratesticular mass after adenomatoid tumor and comprises roughly 6% of such lesions.

Only approximately four cases have been reported in patients younger than 18 years of age.

We report an incidentally discovered paratesticular IMT in a 17-year-old male successfully treated with wide excision and testis sparing.

To our knowledge, no recurrence has been reported after complete excision of paratesticular IMT; however, continued follow-up is recommended.
