Article Synopsis
- A young boy went to the doctor because he had a large, painless lump in his scrotum (the bag that holds the testicles).
- After tests, the doctors took out the lump, and it turned out to be something called a paratesticular fibrous pseudotumour, which is pretty unusual.
- This kind of lump can look like a more serious problem, so the doctors wanted to learn more about it and how to tell it apart from worse conditions.
This case report describes a male in his late 40s with a 4 cm pelvic mass compressing the left distal ureter, resulting in left hydroureteronephrosis. Biopsy of the mass was suggestive of a solitary fibrous tumour. The patient underwent a robotic-assisted laparoscopic excision of the left pelvic mass.

The aim of this study was to investigate the direction-specific actions of proximal and distal portions of adductor magnus, and in doing so determine if these segments have distinct functional roles. Fine-wire EMG electrodes were inserted into two portions of adductor magnus of 12 healthy young adults.
