Abstract: Malignant mesothelioma may arise from one of the cells of tunica vaginalis. It is a rare neoplasm. It may be associated with poor prognosis. Diagnosis may be confirmed with correlation of clinical, radiological and pathological findings. Since the year 1957 ~300 cases of malignant mesothelioma (MM) were reported. In addition,~ 3% of MM cases had testicular lesion. Current tumor might be associated with persistent chronic inflammation due to asbestos. However, present case was not associated with exposure to asbestos.
