ABSTRACT
Sparganosis is a parasitic infestation caused by sparganum of several species of tapeworm related to Diphyllobothrium latum. We experienced a 28 year old man who was suffered from adult thumb-tip sized mass on the tail of right epididymis. From the mass during epididymectomy, whitish yellow colored sparganum measuring about 7cm in length, 0.3cm in width, 0.2cm in thickness could be extracted. So we reported this case with a brief review of the literatures.
