Abstract
- Adenomatoid tumor is an uncommon neoplasm found mainly near or in the epididymis in the male and the fallopian tubes and ovary in the female. We observed a case of adenomatoid tumor of the epididymis, which was found incidentally 20 years ago by patient self examination. A rubbery, non-tender, 2 X 1-cm mass was found in the tail portion of the right epididymis. Scrotal ultrasonography showed a 2.1 X 1.1 X 1.2-cm hypoechoic solitary mass. Mass excisional biopsy with partial epididymectomy was done under local anesthesia. Pathologic examination showed an adenomatoid tumor.
