[Paratesticular fibrous pseudotumours].
Paratesticular fibrous pseudotumours are a rare form of benign tumour with a slow course and a difficult preoperative diagnosis. The objective of treatment is to ensure optimal testis conservation, which is possible when the diagnosis is made on intraoperative frozen section examination. The authors report a case of diffuse fibrous pseudotumour in a 23-year-old man. In the light of this case and a review of the literature, they discuss the diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of these tumours.
