Myxoid neurofibroma of the testis.
A case of an intratesticular myxoid neurofibroma is reported. These tumors, which arise from perineural and Schwann cells, commonly occur throughout the body but have not been reported previously to originate within the testis. The mucoid material within the tumor is translucent, which may confuse the diagnosis with that of a hydrocele.
