Abstract

We present two adenomatous hyperplasia of the rete testis (AHRT) cases. One of them was a 67-year old patient with prostatic adenocarcinoma and the other was a 38-year old patient with undescended testis. AHRT is a rarely seen lesion and usually detected as incidental microscopic finding. It may be confused with malignancy and related to testicular atrophy and hormonal imbalance.The treatment of choice is complete excision. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
