Hemangioma of the testis: report of unusual occurrences of cavernous hemangioma in a fetus and capillary hemangioma in an older man.
We report two cases of hemangiomata of the testes which occurred in a 17-week-old fetus and a 73-year-old man. To our knowledge, these are the first reported cases of cavernous hemangioma of the testis in a fetus and capillary hemangioma of the testis in an older man. Although a hemangioma of the testis is rare, it should be considered in the differential diagnosis of a testicular tumor. Ann Diagn Pathol 5:80-83, 2001.
