Abstract
This study presents 5 atypical cases of testicular and paratesticular neoplasms in pediatrics, highlighting the importance of a high level of clinical suspicion and accurate diagnostic approach. Although rare, these neoplasms can present a variety of clinical and histological manifestations, complicating their diagnosis. Early recognition and proper classification are crucial to ensure effective treatment and a favorable prognosis. Multidisciplinary collaboration, including oncology, pediatric surgery, and endocrinology, is essential to address the oncological and developmental needs of patients. The study concludes that rigorous clinical vigilance and a multidisciplinary approach are fundamental in addressing these challenges in pediatric care for patients with testicular and paratesticular neoplasms.
