摘要

Dear editors, We report an exceedingly rare case of primary testicular angioleiomyoma to increase awareness of this rare entity among urologists and pathologists.To our knowledge,only one case of this rare testicular tumour has been reported in the literature to date,and this is the first report of its presentation with haematospermia.1 A 65-year-old patient was admitted to our clinic for the evaluation of painless haematospermia.The patient's past medical history was unremarkable.At presentation and during the scrotal and testis examination,there was no palpable mass.The patient had no voiding symptoms,and there were no signs of infection.The patient also denied experiencing any recent trauma.A digital rectal examination of the prostate was normal.The ultrasonographic findings disclosed a well-circumscribed ovoid hypoechoic nodule within the right testis,near its upper pole,measuring approximately 0.5 cm,and moderate hydrocele (Figure 1a).The values of serum prostate-specific antigen,alpha-fetoprotein,beta-human chorionic gonadotropin and lactate dehydrogenase were normal.
