Abstract

Adenomatoid tumour is an uncommon neoplasm of the male genital tract. The Authors report their recent observation of three consecutive cases of adenomatoi tumour of the epididymis. In all cases the diagnosis was difficult and done only by an accurate histological examination. The treatment was conservative, consisting in the removal of the neoplasm. After a follow up of at least two years the patients do not show any sign of relapses confirming the validity of the surgical therapeutical approach performed. Because of the unfrequent observation of these forms and the difficulty in the diagnosis, the Authors stress the necessity of the surgical exploration with an accurate microscopic examination of the specimens. Moreover a review of the literature from a histological and therapeutical point of view was done and reported.
