Abstract

Interstitial cell tumor of testis is relatively rare, comprising only 0.8 to 1.4 percent of all testicular tumors. A 67-year-old man was admitted to our hospital with rapid growing testicular mass. He had the experience of hydrocele and many times of aspiration since childhood. On physical examination, the testicular mass (left) was hard, adult fist sized and associated with transparent cystic fluid. Under the impression of testicular tumor, orchiectomy was performed. We report this case with review of literature.
