[A case of intrascrotal extratesticular schwannoma].
A 71-year-old man visited our hospital with a complaint of a right intrascrotal mass. An elastic hard mass was palpable in the right intrascrotal extratesticular space. Ultrasonography, computed tomographic scan and magnetic resonance imaging showed a left intrascrotal extratesticular tumor. However, preoperative diagnosis was not decided. Tumor resection was performed, and the histological diagnosis was schwannoma. Intrascrotal extratesticular schwannoma is very rare, and this case was considered as the second report in Japan.
