[Clinical aspects, follow-up and therapy of benign tumors of the epididymis and para-testicular tissue].

Between July 1982 and July 1988, 15 patients were operated on because of a paratesticular solid tumor. In 10 of the 15 tumors the testis could be preserved by excision or enucleation of the tumor because the frozen section showed an adenomatoid tumor. None of the patients show tumor recurrence after a follow-up of 25.3 months. If the frozen section is found to be benign, a plea is made that the tumor be excised or enucleated without semicastration.
