Abstract :
Inflammatory pseudotuomr refers to a group of benign tumor like lesions that they
are composed of a mixed inflammatory infiltrates. The diagnosis of these lesions and
differentiation of them from malignant process may be difficult. We report on a 35-yearold
man who presented with multiple painless palpable masses in his right hemiscrotum
for about 6 months. Right epididymal involvement with intact testicle and spermatic
cord were observed during scrotal exploration. After classic right epididymectomy,
histopathologic studies revealed inflammatory pseudotumor of the right epididymis.
No remarkable abnormal signs and symptoms were observed in the follow up visits
after 8 months.
