Abstract

Anjioleiomyoma is a benign tumor which develops from smooth muscle of the vascular structures and rarely observed in the scrotum. In this case report we aimed to discuss a 38 years old case whose pathological evaluation is anjioleiomyoma in whom surgical excision was performed due to left paratesticular mass. There is very few information about paratesticular anjioleiomyoma in literature. Differential diagnosis of angioleiomyomas with malign tumors is important.
