These tumors, which arise from mesenchymal tissues, occur in a variety of sites, the most common being subcutaneous tissues and skeletal muscles but they rarely have been reported to originate in the paratesticular region. The differential diagnosis of other mesenchymal neoplasms of the paratesticular area is discussed.

Aggressive angiomyxoma (AAM) is a rare mesenchymal myxoid tumour localised to the pelvis and/or perineum in adult females in reproductive age group. AAM is very rare in males, with <50 cases described in literature, and involves scrotum, spermatic cord and perineum. It is slow growing, with a marked tendency for local recurrence after excision, but without metastatic potential.

Angiomyofibroblastoma (AMF) is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor with tendency to arise in the lower genital tract of middleaged women, predominately in the vulva. A few cases of AMF in males have been reported involving the scrotum, perineum or spermatic cord. We report a new case of AMF arising in the right inguinal region of a 27-year-old man.
