Adenomatoid tumors are benign mesothelial tumors most commonly found in the paratesticular structures, especially the epididymis. Herein, we report a case of adenomatoid tumor originating in the tunica albuginea and mimicking an intratesticular neoplasm. We review the ultrasonographic presentation and literature regarding adenomatoid tumors originating in the tunica albuginea and testicular parenchyma.
