Abstract

|
|
|
Calcifying fibrous pseudotumor is an uncommon benign soft tissue lesion that is newly recognized in the literature. It predominately occurs in young adults and it is mainly located in the extremities, trunk and neck. The pathologic features of calcifying fibrous pseudotumor are characterized by a hyalinized fibrous stroma, psammomatous or dystrophic calcifications and chronic inflammatory cells. The pathogenesis of calcifying fibrous pseudotumor is uncertain. Total excision of the lesion is curative and recurrence is rare. We report here on a case of calcifying fibrous pseudotumor of the spermatic cord that was discovered as a palpable inguinal mass in a 24-year-old man. (Korean J Urol 2006;47:344-346)
