| Summary: | Paratesticular tumors are rare and often benign causes of scrotal masses. Intrascrotal angiolipomas are an uncommon paratesticular tumor that has seldom been reported in the literature.

This case highlights the feasibility of conservative management for slow growing masses, such as angiolipomas. |
