Özet
Testisin kalsifiye nodülü çok nadir görülmesi dolayısıyla etiyolojisi ve tanısal yaklaşımı tam olarak bilinmeyen bir durumdur. Literatürde bu konuda birkaç vaka bildirilmiştir. Kliniğimize testisinde şüpheli bir sertlik sebebiyle gelen ve parsiyel orşiyektomi yapılan 30 yaşındaki hasta literatür bilgileri de gözden geçirilerek tartışıldı
