Benign testicular enlargement secondary to diffuse interstitial fibrosis is a rare clinical entity, especially in pediatric patients. To our knowledge, this is the first pediatric case reported of benign testicular enlargement due to interstitial fibrosis in a cryptorchid testis. We report a rare case of an 11-month-old boy with a cryptorchid testis found intraoperatively to have an asymmetrically enlarged testis secondary to diffuse, benign interstitial fibrosis of the testis. Additionally, we discuss previous case reports of testicular enlargement due to interstitial fibrosis, the potential etiology and the management.
睾丸间质弥漫性纤维化所致良性睾丸增大是一种罕见的临床实体，尤其是在儿科患者中。据我们所知，这是首例报道的隐睾症睾丸间质纤维化所致良性睾丸增大的儿科病例。我们报告了 1 例罕见病例，为 11 个月大的男孩，隐睾术中发现睾丸不对称性增大，原因是睾丸弥漫性良性间质纤维化。此外，我们还讨论了之前因间质纤维化导致睾丸增大的病例报告、潜在病因和治疗方法。
