It usually presents as multiple bilateral ill-defined hyper-echoic intra-testicular lesions of different sizes but generally with maximum 4 mm. Testicular lipomatosis is usually reported in association with Cowden’s syndrome. Aim: We aimed to show that there are cases of testicular lipomatosis occurring in the absence of Cowden’s syndrome. Case Presentation: We present a 28-year-old man with testicular pain, who was finally diagnosed as having isolated testicular lipomatosis without other clinical and biochemical abnormalities using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique. Conclusion: We showed that the testicular lipomatosis may occur and be detected without any evidence of Cowden’s disease.展开更多

Its application in diagnosis of congenital arterial abnormalities has also recently received attention. Herein, we presented a patient who was diagnosed with coarctation of the aorta (COA) using renal Doppler sonography during work-up for secondary hypertension.展开更多
