Abstract

Angioleiomyoma is a benign tumor that commonly affects the soft tissues of the extremities. Its presentation in the testicular region is rare and scarcely described in medical literature. In this case, its diagnosis occurred in a 50-year-old man with reports of chronic pain and a tumor in the left inguinal region. Due to limited scientific literature on the subject, with few described reports, preoperative diagnosis is still challenging and the approach is undefined.
