Abstract

We report a case of a small, intratesticular, incidentally identified, nonpalpable Leydig-cell tumor in which preoperative, dynamic, contrast-enhanced MRI was essential in characterizing the lesion as a neoplasm. Sonographic evaluation failed to demonstrate internal color Doppler flow, resulting in a differential diagnosis that included debris-filled cyst. At surgical resection, intraoperative ultrasound was essential to locate the mass and confirm complete removal. This case highlights the value of dynamic, contrast-enhanced MRI and intraoperative ultrasound for the management of incidental intratesticular lesions with indeterminate sonographic and Doppler characterization. Radiologists and urologists should be familiar with this approach to the incidental, sonographically indeterminate, nonpalpable intratesticular lesion identified on scrotal ultrasound.
