Presentation
The patient presented with hydrocele, a rare presentation for this entity. [typeset.io]
Our case presented with hydrocele which is an unusual presentation for this tumor. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
We reported a case of testicular fibroma in a 20 years male who presented with painless right testicular… Figures from this paper One Citation References SHOWING 1-5 OF 5 REFERENCES [semanticscholar.org]
The aim of the study is to present a case of paratesticular fibroma, as well as the diagnostic and therapeutic sequence implemented. We present a 55 year old patient with a history of hypertension. [pesquisa.bvsalud.org]
Entire Body System
- Inflammation
It occurs due to prior inflammation, infection, or trauma. Location It most often involves the tunica vaginalis. Ultrasound Sonographic appearances can be widely variable. [radiopaedia.org]
No history of trauma or inflammation was recorded in the testicle. [pesquisa.bvsalud.org]
Chronic inflammation is known to play a role in cancer initiation, promotion, and metastasis (Das Roy et al., 2012). However, the mechanism by which inflammation promotes metastasis is still unclear. [scielo.cl]
No pathologic evidence of inflammation was seen around the tumor. Normally, the tunica albuginea does not show contrast enhancement on MRI [8]. [ajronline.org]
The etiology of fibrous pseudotumors is unknown, but the pathogenesis is thought to be due to benign the fibro-inflammatory reaction in response to chronic inflammation [9]. These lesions are thought to originate from fibroblasts and myofibroblasts. [hindawi.com]
- Fever
Other symptoms include a high fever, shaking chills, headache, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain (sometimes mistaken for appendicitis if the right testicle is affected). [context.reverso.net]
The swelling gradually increased in size and was not associated with any pain or fever. The patient also denied prior history of any trauma, infections, or scrotal surgeries. The past medical and surgical history was otherwise unremarkable. [hindawi.com]
Urogenital
- Scrotal Mass
The determination on imaging of the testicular or paratesticular origin of a scrotal mass is important in subsequent management. [ajronline.org]
Majority of patients present with a painless scrotal swelling [3, 11], and on clinical examination, these lesions are palpated as single or multiple painless, firm masses ranging from 0.5 to 8 cm [1]. [hindawi.com]

Investigations The baseline hematological and biochemistry workup was normal. [hindawi.com]
Treatment
Therefore, aggressive local treatment with hemiscrotectomy is recommended. No clear recommendation can be given regarding adjuvant treatment. [uroweb.org]

[…] uncommon Clinically benign with no reported recurrences or metastases Case reports Signet ring stromal tumor of the testis - extremely rare (Hum Pathol 2009;40:584) 2 cases with focal sex cord component (inhibin+, CD99+, Arch Pathol Lab Med 1999;123:391) Treatment [pathologyoutlines.com]
Hence, patients with this kind of malignant neoplasms require periodic oral examination and the early treatment of periodontal conditions. [scielo.cl]
[…] pattern of growth with “stage horn” appearance of blood vessels as well as positivity for CD34 and STAT6 and lack of expression of inhibin and caretinin are typical features of solitary fibrous tumor.[10] Finally, surgical excision seems to be a curative treatment [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
Prognosis
After two weeks of the biopsy the patient died due to the poor prognosis of his primary tumor and the advanced stage with multiple metastases. Fig.1. [scielo.cl]
The prognosis of fibrous pseudotumors is excellent, and recurrence after complete excision is extremely rare [2]. Additional Points Take-Home Messages. [hindawi.com]
Similarly, the spindled cells in the present case were immunoreactive for vimentin and SMA These tumors like, fibromas are thought to behave in a benign fashion and have a good prognosis. [diagnosticpathology.biomedcentral.com]

Prevention
Surgeons should be aware of this rare condition and must do a careful evaluation to prevent unnecessary removal of the testis. 2. [hindawi.com]
