Benign non-cystic scrotal tumors and pseudotumors.


Abstract

There is a wide spectrum of benign, non-cystic scrotal lesions that show characteristic histo-morphology and natural history.

While sonography is the preferred modality for the diagnosis of both testicular and extratesticular masses, MRI is used as a problem-solving modality when sonographic findings are inconclusive.

This article reviews the cross-sectional imaging features of benign, non-cystic, intra- and extratesticular lesions.

Definitive diagnosis of benign scrotal lesions may lead to conservative management including testicular preserving surgery.
