Department of Nuclear Medicine, Peking University First Hospital, Beijing, China.
A 56-year-old man presented with a 2-month history of a mass in the right epididymo-testicular region, which exhibited heterogeneous high avidity for 18F-FDG on PET/CT. Malignant tumor was highly suspected, leading to subsequent right orchiectomy and epididymectomy. Histopathological examination revealed the presence of characteristic Michaelis-Gutmann bodies within von Hansemann macrophages, confirming the diagnosis of malacoplakia.

A 67-year-old Saudi man with poorly controlled diabetes-mellitus underwent orchiectomy for a painful left testicular swelling that did not respond to antibiotics. Clinical diagnosis was testicular malignancy. Histologic workup demonstrated extensive involvement of the testis and epididymis by diffuse infiltrate of large histiocytes with eosinophilic granular cytoplasm and numerous Michaelis-Gutmann bodies, which were diagnostic of malakoplakia.
