Current Diagnosis, Treatment and Follow-up Procedures of Paratesticular Masses

Abstract

Objective:The pre-op differentiation of testicular tumors from paratesticular masses cannot be made clearly. Generally, radical orchiectomy is performed with pre-diagnosis of testicular tumor and a clinical approach is planned according to the final pathological result.When clinicians diagnose a scrotal mass, they should considered that this mass may be originated from epididymidis, tunica vaginalis, spermatic cord, fat-muscle-connective tissue, and embryonic remnants and should determine the treatment management accordingly.

Materials and Methods:The pathology results of 140 patients, who were admitted to our center between 2008 and 2018 presenting scrotal mass and underwent inguinal radical orchiectomy considering as testicular tumor, were retrospectively analyzed. Preoperative and postoperative data, clinical course, and treatment management of the cases reported to be paratesticular mass by pathology were discussed in the light of the literature.

Results:Paratesticular mass(PTM)was detected in 13 cases of our retrospectively analyzed series. Of these, 10 patients were found to have adenomatoid tumors(AT) 2 patients have rhabdomyosarcoma(RMS), and 1 patient angiomyxoma(AM).

Conclusion:The differential diagnosis of whether intrascrotal masses are originating from testicular tissues or paratesticular structures is usually cannot be made. Therefore, radical orchiectomy is performed in the same way as testicular tumors and a definite diagnosis can be made by pathological examination. The paratesticular masses, 2-3% of the scrotal masses, should be considered in the differential diagnosis. In this regard, there is a need for studies with a higher number of series.
