A tale of 3 testes? A rare presentation of lipoblastoma with a novel karyotype.
Lipoblastoma is a rare benign mesenchymal tumor of embryonal fat that occurs almost exclusively in infants and children. Although lipoblastomas can affect any part of the body, only 5 cases affecting the scrotum have previously been reported. We present a case of an intrascrotal lipoblastoma with a novel karyotype.
