Filariasis is a tropical infectious disease and a global public health problem with high incidence in the Indian subcontinent. The clinical manifestations of filariasis vary from person to person depending upon course of infection and the worm load. It is very rare to observe adult filarial worm in the testicular tissues. We herewith report a case of adult filarial worm in the testicular tissue.

Objective: Clinicopathological analysis of testicular tumors as per World Health Organisation (WHO) classification. Materials and methods:All consecutive cases of testicular tumors diagnosed in the department of pathology for five year were included in this study. Results:During the span of five years, total 59 cases of testicular tumors were diagnosed. Scrotal mass or swelling was the predominant mode of presentation. Germ cell tumors constituted 89.8% (n = 53) of all testicular neoplasms in which seminoma 32.2% and teratocarcinoma 13.4% were present. Yolk-sac tumor (5.1%) was the commonest testicular neoplasm in children while lymphoma (8.5%) was the predominant neoplasm in elderly population. One case of leukemic infiltration of testis (1.7%) in a known patient of acute lymphocytic leukemia after chemotherapy was also observed. Conclusion:In this study clinical presentation, age,and frequency of testicular tumors,with few exceptions are similar to other studies from different parts of country, confirming similarity in international literature.
