A 70-year-old male was admitted to our hospital with the chief complaint of a left intrascrotal mass. A painless, solid and elastic-hard mass was palpable in the left scrotum. The testis, epididymis and spermatic cord could not be palpated separately from the mass. Tumor resection was performed. The tumor was 13 x 7.5 x 3.0 cm in size and 285 g in weight. Histological diagnosis was schwannoma. To our knowledge, the case was considered as the sixth reported in Japan.

Acute scrotum in a child is common, and the main underlying conditions are torsion of intrascrotal appendages, epididymitis, testicular torsion and idiopathic scrotal edema. The main diagnostic aim is to confirm or rule out testicular torsion, since this may lead to irreversible ischemia within hours. The diagnostics can be difficult, especially in prepubertal boys, but consist of a thorough history and clinical examination, the use of a clinical prediction score, and sometimes ultrasound with doppler.

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.

Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) has emerged as a promising imaging modality for the characterization of hepatic and renal lesions. However, there is a paucity of data describing the use of CEUS for the evaluation of intra-scrotal pathology. In the following review, we describe the clinical utility of CEUS for the characterization and differentiation of common and uncommon intra-scrotal conditions, including testicular torsion, infection, trauma, and benign and malignant intratesticular and extratesticular neoplasms.
