Abstract

Paratesticular cystadenomas remain a very rare entity, typically presenting as a painless mass, often indistinguishable from the testicle. As such, the predominant management seems to be complete excision via various approaches, which often proves curative. Given its rarity, post-operative surveillance has not been standardized; most patients and providers elect a more conservative surveillance approach. Based on the available literature, this seems appropriate, given the lack of morbidity or recurrence associated with these types of tumors.

Keywords: epididymis; extratesticular; ovarian serous cystadenoma; paratesticular mass; serous borderline tumor.
