AI 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.
Article Abstract
This report describes a boy in his early adolescence who was referred to a urologist with a large, painless right scrotal mass. Following a thorough workup, the patient underwent surgical removal of the mass, which was revealed to be a paratesticular fibrous pseudotumour (PFP) on histopathological analysis. This diagnosis is rare and can often prove difficult to distinguish from a malignant lesion within the scrotum. We have conducted a review of the current literature surrounding PFP to compliment the case discussion.
