Abstract: 

Adenomatoid tumour(AT) of paratesticular region is a rare benign mesothelial neoplasm and mainly involves the epididymis. A definitive preoperative diagnosis is often not possible and it is difficult to differentiate clinically and radiologically from malignancy which may end up in unnecessary orchiectomy. Histopathological examination along with immunohistochemistry is diagnostic and conclusive for the diagnosis of adenomatoid tumour. Herein, we reported a case of seventeen-year old male who presented with intrascrotal mass suspicious of malignancy.High inguinal orchiectomy was performed. Histopathology and immunohistochemistry confirmed the diagnosis of epididymal adenomatoid tumour.
