Abstract

Objective: To explore the clinical diagnosis and treatment of testicular cavernous hemangioma (TCH).

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data on a case of TCH associated with testicular torsion treated in our hospital and reviewed the relevant literature.

Results: The patient underwent "right orchiectomy" after preoperative examinations. Intraoperative pathology indicated testicular parenchyma infarction, and postoperative pathology showed cavernous hemangioma with hemorrhage and infarction. No recurrence was observed during 3 years of postoperative follow-up.

Conclusion: Testicular cavernous hemangioma is an extremely rare benign tumor of the testis, and rarely associated with testicular torsion. Preoperative and intraoperative pathology provides a basis for the selection of reasonable treatment.

Keywords: testicular hemangioma cavernous; testicular hemangioma; testicular torsion; orchiectomy.
