ABSTRACT
Papillary cystadenoma of the epididymis is a rare benign tumor that accounts for only 5% of all epididymal tumors. A case of epididymal cystadenoma was presented in a 25 year old man. The patient was hospitalized initially because of infertility and bilateral painless palpable scrotal masses. He had multiple renal cysts and pancreatic cysts. He had no renal, adrenal, cerebellar or retinal lesion as cardinal manifestation of the Von Hippel-Lindau Syndrome (VHL). The VHL gene mutation in this case was not identified. For evaluation and management, we planned left epididymovasostomy and left testicular biopsy. However, due to a cystic change on the left epididymis and left tunica albuginea, we instead performed a left partial epididymectomy for the cystic lesion, excision of the cystic mass from the left tunica albuginea, and diagnostic left testicular biopsy. The pathologic evaluation revealed a papillary cystadenoma of the epididymis and tunica albuginea, but with normal spermatogenesis.
