Abstract
Capillary hemangioma is a rare benign lesion in the testicle, particularly in pediatrics. It can mimic malignancy, leading to radical orchiectomy. We present a case of a testicular hemangioma in a child, and review the literature on testicular hemangiomas in this age group. A hypervascular testicular lesion without elevated tumor markers may warrant intraoperative biopsy to direct surgical management, which may include testis-sparing surgery if amenable.Entities:
