description Adenomatoid tumors are rare benign mesothelial neoplasm involving the Para testicular region, mostly the tail of the epididymis. However, it may occur in some other parts of the genitourinary system. A definitive diagnosis of the tumor is very important because it is very difficult to differentiate it clinically and radiologically from the other intrascrotal tumors. Herein, we report a case of adenomatoid tumor of the epididymis in a 60-year old male patient, with its clinical data and review of the literature.
