A patient is presented in whom such a tumor was found and excised through a scrotal incision. He is alive and well 27 years later. The author presents reasons for the type of scrotal exploration done. The pathological histology is discussed. An adenomatoid tumor can easily be confused with a prostatic adenocarcinoma on frozen section.
