RESUMO
Testicular mesothelioma lacks the characteristic presentation of testicular malignancy and often has normal biomarkers at the time of diagnosis causing this malignancy to be overlooked and diagnosed intraoperatively during elective scrotal surgery. We present two cases of testicular mesothelioma that were diagnosed incidentally during hydrocelectomy. These cases emphasize the importance of considering testicular mesothelioma during hydrocele and scrotal mass workup and demonstrate the need for standardized guidelines for the management of testicular mesothelioma.
