Abstract
We report the sonographic findings in a case of fibrous pseudotumor of the tunica vaginalis. Scrotal grayβscale sonography revealed a wellβmargined, hypoechoic mass with an onion ring appearance and central calcifications in the left scrotum. Color Doppler sonography showed no blood flow within the mass. The pathological examination revealed a fibrous pseudotumor with a paucicellular and fibroblastic proliferation of cells within a hyalinized collagenous stroma. Β© 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
