Cavernous hemangioma of the testis mimicking a testicular teratoma.
In this study we report a case of cavernous hemangioma of the testis, which mimicked a testicular teratoma. A 42-year-old male presented with a left testicular swelling that had arisen suddenly and been present for three months. Scrotal ultrasound revealed a hypoechoic mass with several calcifications in the left testicle. The mass demonstrated blood flow in the color Doppler mode. A radical orchiectomy was performed. Pathological evaluation revealed a testicular cavernous hemangioma with thrombus organization and calcification.
