Testicular microlithiasis (TM) is a rare condition in which men have innumerable testicular calcifications. It is increasingly being reported on ultrasound. The published literature has reported an association between confirmed testicular malignancy and testicular microlithiasis. The relationship between TM and the risk of developing malignancy is unclear. The present paper reports a patient with a previously normal scrotal ultrasound except for bilateral sonographically detected TM who developed a testicular tumour. It also discusses the appropriate management of TM after reviewing the published literature.
