Tubular Ectasia of the Epididymis: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Tubular ectasia of the epididymis is a rare benign disorder that, when present, is usually seen in patients post-vasectomy. It can also be seen in patients with a prior history of trauma or local infection. Patients typically present with a palpable scrotal mass and dull-aching pain. It is important to differentiate this disease from other common disorders such as varicocele, hydrocele, spermatocele, or even testicular malignancy. We report a rare case of tubular ectasia of the epididymis in a 55-year-old patient with palpable scrotal swelling with no prior operative history of vasectomy nor any history of trauma. We share this patient's ultrasonography findings along with a literature review of this uncommon disease.
