Testis-Sparing Approach in Paratesticular Leiomyoma: A Rare Case Navigating From Diagnosis to Targeted Treatment Planning

In this case study, we describe a 46-year-old male presenting with a palpable, gradually enlarging scrotal mass persisting over three to four years, ultimately diagnosed as paratesticular leiomyoma, who underwent enucleation of the tumor with no signs of recurrence, two years after surgery. This report underscores the significance of accurate diagnosis to avoid unnecessary treatment. We also emphasize the sequential events and findings, supported by relevant literature review, that contributed to establishing the correct diagnosis and guiding appropriate treatment decisions.

Abstract

In this case study, we describe a 46-year-old male presenting with a palpable, gradually enlarging scrotal mass persisting over three to four years, ultimately diagnosed as paratesticular leiomyoma, who underwent enucleation of the tumor with no signs of recurrence, two years after surgery. This report underscores the significance of accurate diagnosis to avoid unnecessary treatment. We also emphasize the sequential events and findings, supported by relevant literature review, that contributed to establishing the correct diagnosis and guiding appropriate treatment decisions.
