Adenomatoid tumor is a benign mesothelial neoplasm of the paratesticular region in males but can also occur in female genital tracts. The epididymis is the most common site of involvement and constitutes 32% of paratesticular neoplasms. We diagnosed a case of adenomatoid tumor on cytopathology in 24 years old male, who presented with mass lesion right epididymis since 2 months. The diagnosis was confirmed on histopathology and immunohistochemistry after surgical excision of the nodule. FNAC is a rapid, reliable and cost effective diagnostic tool for preoperative diagnosis to take appropriate surgical decisions. Pathologists should be aware of the cytological features of such lesions so as to differentiate it from other paratesticular lesions.
腺瘤样瘤是男性睾丸旁区域的一种良性间皮肿瘤，但也可发生于女性生殖道。附睾是最常受累的部位，占睾丸旁肿瘤的32%。我们通过细胞病理学诊断了一例24岁男性的腺瘤样瘤，该患者自2个月前起右侧附睾出现肿块。结节手术切除后，通过组织病理学和免疫组织化学确诊。细针穿刺抽吸活检（FNAC）是一种快速、可靠且经济高效的诊断工具，用于术前诊断以做出适当的手术决策。病理学家应了解此类病变的细胞学特征，以便将其与其他睾丸旁病变区分开来。
