title: Talc granuloma presenting as a testicular mass.
abstract: A case of a benign talc granuloma in a 3-year-old boy is reported. Surgical wound contamination with various lubricant dusts from surgeons' gloves and resultant granuloma formation is a well known phenomenon. However, there are few reported cases of peritesticular masses owing to talc granulomas.
