Abstract
-
Paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma is a rare tumor arising from the mesenchymal tissues of the spermatic cord, epididymis, testis, and testicular tunics, and represents 7% of all rhabdomyosarcomas. This tumor occurs predominantly in children and adolescent, but rarely in adult. We report a case of a paratesticular embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma occurring in a 27-year-old man.
