Adenomatoid tumours of the male genital tract. Review of 5 men presenting with an intrascrotal swelling subsequently diagnosed as an adenomatoid tumour.

Adenomatoid tumours of the male genital tract are not commonly diagnosed pre-operatively and there is some controversy regarding their management. We reviewed the case notes of 5 men who presented between 1980 and 1987 with an intrascrotal swelling subsequently diagnosed as an adenomatoid tumour. 3 had a testicular swelling and 2 of these underwent an orchidectomy. 2 had epididymal swellings and local excision was performed. The histopathology and management of adenomatoid tumours are discussed.
