[Adenomatoid tumor of the epididymis: cytologic diagnosis by fine-needle aspiration (FNA)].
Adenomatoid tumor of the epididymis diagnosed using fine needle aspiration (FNA). The adenomatoid tumor of the male genital system is a relatively uncommon, well recognized neoplasm with benign histologic appearance, and mostly asymptomatic clinical features. We describe a case of adenomatoid tumor of the epididymis diagnosed before surgery by fine needle aspiration cytology (FNA). This diagnostic procedure has allowed a rapid, reliable, and conclusive surgical approach.
