      <Abstract>Introduction: Calcifying fibrous tumor is among the most rarely seen benign lesion in the paratestis. It often clinically mimics malignancy and usually leads to an unnecessary radical orchiectomy. We present a new case of this rare lesion with literature review of the clinical and the morphological features.Case Report: A 24-year-old male patient presented to the department of urology with a 10 years history of enlarging palpable intrascrotal mass, becoming painful in the last 2 years. Physical examination revealed a stony right hemiscrotum with no other pathological sign. The radiologists have concluded to an epididymal lesion suspected of malignancy. Right radical orchiectomy was performed. The histological analysis of the specimen and the immunohistochemistry staining was consistent with calcifying fibrous tumor. Conclusion: We report this case with the aim of considering the calcifying fibrous tumor as a possible diagnosis when assessing a patient with paratesticular lesion and redirecting the treatment decision to a testis sparing surgery.&#13;
