Abstract
Fibrous pseudotumor is a rare entity involving the paratestis comprising about 6%. These lesions are considered to represent a benign reactive process that chiefly affect young adults and mimic testicular tumors. We report a case of a 35 year old male who presented with a painless testicular mass since 2 year. This case is reported due to its extreme rarity and highlights the need to incorporate this rare tumor as a differential diagnosis in young adults with testicular mass.
