Abstract
The histological, histochemical and immunohistochemical features of a malignant mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis testis in a 69-year-old patient are described. The mesothelial derivation of the tumor was confirmed using a panel of selected antibodies. Malignant mesothelioma of the testicular tunica vaginalis is a rare tumor that must be considered so that appropriate treatment can be instituted.
