Abstract

OBJETIVO: Comunicar el segundo caso descrito en la literatura de neurofibroma solitario con origen en la túnica albugínea testicular y los hallazgos radiológicos. MÉTODO/RESULTADOS: Presentamos un neurofibroma de la túnica albugínea en un paciente adulto no afectado por neurofibromatosis. Se describen los hallazgos de este tumor en ecografía-doppler y resonancia magnética (RM) con correlación histopatológica, así como una breve revisión de la literatura. CONCLUSIÓN: La RM puede ser una técnica útil para ayudar en la caracterización prequirúrgica de las lesiones paratesticulares. El neurofibroma debe ser incluido en el diagnóstico diferencial de masas escrotales cuando están bien delimitadas y muestran hiperintensidad de señal en T2 y realce intenso tras la administración de gadolinio.
