Leiomyoadenomatoid tumors: A type of rare benign epididymal tumor
Primary tumors of the epididymis are mostly benign in nature, and the most common type is adenomatoid tumors followed by leiomyomas. Leiomyoadenomatoid tumors are very rare benign epididymal neoplasms composed of two components: gland-like structures lined by cuboidal cells and bundles of smooth mus...

description | Primary tumors of the epididymis are mostly benign in nature, and the most common type is adenomatoid tumors followed by leiomyomas. Leiomyoadenomatoid tumors are very rare benign epididymal neoplasms composed of two components: gland-like structures lined by cuboidal cells and bundles of smooth muscle components. The goal of treatment is testicular-preserving surgery. A preoperative and intraoperative evaluation plays an important role in proper management. To the best of our knowledge, few cases have been reported in the literature. We report a case of a right epididymal tail leiomyoadenomatoid tumor in a 49-year-old male who underwent trans-scrotal exploration and tumor excision. |
