Testicular Inflammatory Myofibroblastic Tumor: A Known Entity at a Very Rare Site

An Unusual Case of Inflammatory Pseudotumor of Paratesticular Region

Inflammatory pseudotumors (IPT) are rare benign tumors that can develop in various regions of the body. Notably, IPTs have been uncommonly described in the Genitourinary system including occasional reports from the paratesticular region. This origin from this area is significant because of the ambiguity in differentiating this pathology from malignant lesions arising from the testis. We would like to report a case of a 32-year-old male who presented with a painless left scrotal mass for two years. Ultrasonography was done followed by a radical orchidectomy and histopathological examination of the excised lesion showed features suggestive of inflammatory pseudotumor from the paratesticular region. We feel this case merits reporting owing to the rarity of IPT occurring in the paratesticular region and the essential need for increased awareness and differentiation from the malignant counterparts.

Case Report: Recurrence of Testicular Myofibroblastic Tumor After Surgery

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumour (IMT), also known as plasma cell granuloma (PCG) or inflammatory pseudotumour (IPT), is a distinctive, rarely metastasizing neoplasm composed of myofibroblastic and fibroblastic spindle cells accompanied by inflammatory infiltration of plasma cells, lymphocytes and/or eosinophils. IMT predominantly affects children and young adults, and the age at presentation ranges from 3 to 89 years. We present a very rare case of recurrent testicular IMT without ALK rearrangement. This case highlights the clinical characteristics and diagnostic factors associated with primary and recurrent foci of this rare tumour, along with key therapeutic approaches.
