Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To present the rare case of testicular hemangioma. CASE REPORT: A 45-year-old clerk presented with painless swelling in the left testicle, which he noticed one month ago. Inguinal orchidectomy on the left side was performed and pathological report proved cavernous hemangioma. CONCLUSION: Hemangioma of the testis is very rare clinical condition. Clinical appearance and diagnostic exams are usually not sufficient for the diagnosis. Sometimes, hyperechoic lesion with increased vascularity can be seen on Doppler ultrasonography.
