MRI was performed. Confirming nodular mass, with adenomatoid tumour of the epididymis being the first diagnostic possibility. + +It was decided, in both cases, to surgically resect the nodular tumour in the right epididymal tail, without performing a subsequent orchiectomy. +In both cases an anatomopathological examination of the surgical specimen was performed.
