Abstract

SAN MIGUEL, P. et al. Spermatic cord mass as a manifestation of systemic vasculitis: a case report and review of the literature. Actas Urol Esp [online]. 2005, vol.29, n.8, pp.777-781. ISSN 0210-4806.

We report a case of necrotizing granulomatous vasculitis in the spermatic cord in a 35-year-old man with an antecedent of brain stroke 3 years before. The clinical manifestation was as a painless left scrotal mass. The diagnosis was established by histological examination of the spermatic cord. We discuss the physical findings, radiological features and pathological findings, reviewing the literature for previous similar cases.

Keywords : Vasculitis; testes; cerebral infarct; diagnosis.
