Abstract
Vasitis nodosa is an infrequently recognized, benign disorder that may be confused with malignancy of the vas deferens. A review of 30 patients with vasal masses on physical examination, 1 of which was painful. Of the 20 patients with vasitis nodosa 14 had associated granulomatous inflammation. Vasitis nodosa is notably more common than has been reported previously and has been associated with spontaneous recanalization of the vas deferens following vasectomy.This publication has 14 references indexed in Scilit:
