Abstract

Melanotic neuroectodermal tumour of epididymis configures as an exceptionally discerned, benign neoplasm of neuroectodermal genesis. Initially scripted by Krompecher in 1918 as congenital melanocarcinoma of alveolar process of maxilla, tumefaction is comprised of biphasic population of cells denominated as neuroblastic cells and pigmented epithelial cells.
