Paratesticular tumors are uncommon tumors, most being found incidentally at autopsy. The most common benign paratesticular tumor is the adenomatoid tumor. A somewhat less frequent benign paratesticular tumor, papillary cystadenoma, accounts for approximately 33 percent of all the primary epididymal tumors and is frequently seen in patients with Von Hippel-Lindau disease. Malignant tumors are rare. Of these, rhabdomyosarcoma is the most frequent. Seen almost exclusively in the pediatric population, paratesticular rhabdomyosarcomas account for 7 percent of childhood rhabdomyosarcomas. We describe two cases of paratesticular tumors in adults: a papillary cystadenoma of the epididymis in a 72-year old male, and an incidental rhabdomyosarcoma in a 49-year old male.
睾丸旁肿瘤是罕见肿瘤，多数是在尸检时偶然发现。最常见的良性睾丸旁肿瘤是腺瘤样瘤。一种相对少见的良性睾丸旁肿瘤——乳头状囊腺瘤，约占所有原发性附睾肿瘤的33%，且常见于冯·希佩尔－林道病患者。恶性肿瘤罕见。其中，横纹肌肉瘤最为常见。睾丸旁横纹肌肉瘤几乎仅见于儿童群体，占儿童横纹肌肉瘤的7%。我们描述了两例成人睾丸旁肿瘤病例：一例为72岁男性的附睾乳头状囊腺瘤，另一例为49岁男性偶然发现的横纹肌肉瘤。
