Abstract Introduction/Objective Testicular capillary hemangioma is a rare benign vascular tumor and typically occurs in patients younger than 20 years. Study suggests that the mean age of these patients is usually 25.1 ± 22.7 years. We report a case of a 63-year-old man who underwent an uncomplicated radical orchiectomy for scrotal irritation and testicular fullness. Methods/Case Report Clinically he was found to have a large testicular mass. Ultrasound showed cystocele and an intratesticular tumor. Increased LDH was also found. Gross examination showed a single large cystic cavity containing yellow-colored fluid and a well-circumscribed tan-brown nodule measuring 2.5 × 1.8 × 1.0 cm within the testicular parenchyma. There was no extension into the tunica albuginea. Microscopic examination showed groups of capillaries of varying sizes in a lobular arrangement with bland spindle-like endothelial cells lining these capillary structures. The circumscribed vascular lesion was well-demarcated from the testicular parenchyma by a fibrous 0.1-cm pseudocapsule. The benign nature of this lesion was suggested by the lack of any mitotic activity, anaplasia, or dysplasia. Immunohistochemical staining was strongly positive for endothelial markers (CD31 and CD 34), and negative for mesothelial (WT1) and lymphatic markers (D2-40), excluding an adenomatoid tumor. Based on these characteristic morphological and immunohistochemical findings, the diagnosis of testicular capillary hemangioma was made. After 6 months of follow-up, the patient was well without any clinical evidence of recurrence. Results (if a Case Study enter NA) NA Conclusion While rarity of testicular capillary hemangioma impedes significant changes in how we approach adult testicular masses, the possibility of a benign tumor should always be in mind to consider. This is especially pertinent when patients fall outside the typical age range for germ-cell tumors, and for patients with a solitary testicular mass.

Pyogenic granuloma, also called lobular capillary hemangioma, is a benign vascular lesion of the skin and mucous membranes. While the majority of pyogenic granulomas in the oral cavity involve the gingiva, they also infrequently present at other sites including lips, oral mucosa, palate, and tongue. We report a case of a pyogenic granuloma of the tongue in a five-year old female patient.

Testicular fibroma of gonadal stromal origin is a rare benign tumor of testis, which usually presents as a slow growing testicular mass. Intratesticular fibroma of gonadal stromal origin, with or without minor sex cord elements, must be considered, analogous to similar tumors in ovary, as a benign tumor. Until now, only 25 cases of testicular fibroma have been reported in the literature. We reported a case of testicular fibroma in a 20 years male who presented with painless right testicular enlargement since two years. Ultrasonography (USG) showed heterogeneous mass in right scrotum suggestive of testicular malignancy. Right orchidectomy was done. Histopathological diagnosis was testicular fibroma, which was confirmed by immunohistochemistry.

Malignancy, including testicular tumors, significantly increases the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). In this study, we search for predictors that may help identify subgroups of patients at higher risk of VTE. Patients with confirmed diagnosis of testicular germ cell tumor and proven VTE were identified. Clinical and pathological features possibly associated with VTE were reviewed. A total of 322 patients, median age (range) 31 (18-76) years were identified. Tumors were mostly non-seminoma (n = 194, 60.2%), node-positive (n = 130, 40.4%) and 58 (18.0%) had metastatic disease at diagnosis. Venous thromboembolism were confirmed in 27 (8.4%) patients; however, rates were significantly higher ( P < 0.001) in patients with node-positive (18.5%), metastatic disease (22.4%), and those with high lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (21.3%). Rates were also significantly higher among those who received multiple lines of chemotherapy (27.5%) compared to those who received one line (13.8%) or none (<1.0%), P < 0.001. Patients with testicular tumors and high tumor burden, including nodal involvement, high LDH or metastatic disease, and those treated with multiple lines of chemotherapy have significantly higher rates of VTE.

We report a case of capillary hemangioma of the scrotum. A 52-year-old male presented with a left scrotum swelling that had arisen suddenly two months before. Scrotal ultrasound revealed a dishomogeneous mass in the left scrotum. The mass demonstrated blood flow in the color Doppler mode. Scrotal mass excision was performed. Pathological evaluation revealed a capillary hemangioma.

The case involves a 10-year-old child who underwent a left radical nephrectomy for what was believed to be a Wilms’ tumor. Histopath examination indicated a benign vascular lesion, subsequently determined to be an anastomosing hemangioma of the kidney. A comparison with the previously cited pediatric patients with renal vascular tumors is provided, and the inconsistent diagnostic terminologies for these conditions are highlighted. The therapeutic implications of these predominantly benign renal tumors, in the context of the much more frequently encountered malignant neoplasms in children, are additionally discussed.

ABSTRACT A total of 3 to 5% of all ovarian malignancies include malignant ovarian germ cell tumors (MOGCTs). They are subdivided into germinomatous and non-germinomatous tumors. Common types of non-germinomatous tumors include yolk sac and immature teratoma. Ovarian yolk sac tumors (YST) are the second most frequent histological subtype of MOGCTs, after ovarian dysgerminoma. They account for 20% of MOGCTs and are frequent especially in childhood and in early adulthood. We report the case of a yolk sac tumor of the ovary in a 13yrs years old female.
