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
