Abstract
A case of paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma in a 23 year-old patient is reported. Clinical signs are like any intrascrotal tumor. Scrotal ultrasound, CT scan and immunohistochemical markers are necessary for the diagnosis and stadification of this cancer. Orchidectomy followed by radiotherapy and/or chemotherapy is the usual treatment. Prognosis depends on the tumoral stage.
