Bilateral leiomyoma of the epididymis.
The rare event of a bilateral leiomyoma of the epididymis is illustrated. The tumors were located near the tail of the epididymis in a man aged 58, which furthermore presented hydrocele and had been previously operated because of bilateral inguinal hernia. The differentiation with inflammatory pseudotumor, leiomyosarcoma and adenomatoid leiomyoma is discussed.
