AB  - Fibrous pseudotumors are rare benign lesions that originate 
within the paratesticular tissues. Local excision is the 
preferred method of treatment of these tumors over radical 
orchiectomy, however a definitive diagnosis must be made beforehand given the similarity of these tumors to malignant 
entities. We present a case of fibrous pseudotumor of the 
tunica vaginalis and cauda epididymis. A diagnosis of 
fibrous pseudotumor could not be established despite the 
use of intraoperative frozen section, therefore necessitating 
radical orchiectomy.
