Paratesticular Tumors

Paratesticular tumors are a rare and heterogeneous group of neoplasms arising from structures adjacent to the testis, including the epididymis and spermatic cord, and often present as painless scrotal masses that can mimic testicular malignancies. Their clinical significance lies in the diagnostic challenge they pose and the potential consequences of misclassification, which may lead to unnecessary orchiectomy or delayed treatment of malignancy. This activity provides clinicians with a comprehensive review of the epidemiology, clinical presentation, imaging evaluation, and management strategies for both benign and malignant paratesticular tumors. Participants will enhance their ability to differentiate paratesticular from intratesticular lesions, apply appropriate diagnostic modalities such as ultrasound and MRI, and implement evidence-based management approaches. Emphasis is placed on multidisciplinary coordination to optimize diagnostic accuracy, guide treatment decisions, and improve patient outcomes.
