Zusammenfassung

Das Kapitel beschäftigt sich mit allen Erkrankungen des Nebenhodens, der Hodenhüllen und des Samenstrangs. Im Vordergrund stehen die Missbildungen des Samenstrangs und des Nebenhodens sowie die Veränderungen nach Vasektomie. Neben den Entzündungen und den seltenen epithelialen Nebenhodentumoren werden vor allem die häufigen mesothelialen Tumoren des Nebenhodens und der Hodenhüllen besprochen.
