| Abstrakt: |
A 68-year-old man presented with right intrascrotal swelling. On palpation, a hard tumor without pain was recognized at the head of the right epididymis. Power Doppler ultrasonography revealed blood flow signals within the tumor. Surgical exploration was performed under the tentative diagnosis as possible malignant tumor of the epididymis. The right epididymis adhered to the testis so strongly, that the epididymis was resected with the testis. Pathological diagnosis was moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma of the epididymis. The results of general examinations on possible presence of primary lesions in other organs were all negative. Finally, the diagnosis of primary adenocarcinoma of the epididymis was obtained. He remains free of disease 17 months after surgery. |
