Clinical information

• One of the male reproductive system diagnoses, testicular mass, or scrotal mass, is an odd lump or bulge in the scrotum that's either swollen or filled with fluid/tissue. The mass may be cancerous or noncancerous. 
• The main symptom of the mass is when one can feel it. However, other symptoms are testicular pain, pain in the scrotum and groin/abdomen, heaviness/redness in the scrotum, and swollen/hard testicles. 
• Causes of a testicular mass are bacterial/viral infection, testicles filling with fluid, blood clots, an enlarged vein, intestinal tissue, twisting of spermatic cord, and cancer. 
• Practitioners diagnose testicular masses by conducting a physical exam and asking them to undergo further tests such as an ultrasound, CT scan, and blood or urine test. 
• Treatment varies on the cause. However, some common ones are pain medication or antibiotics and, in extreme cases, surgery. For cancerous masses, treatments include surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy.

Synonyms include

• Benign neoplasm of testis
• Cancer of the testis, sertoli cell tumor
• Gonadoblastoma of testis
