At the best of our knowledge, this is the first detailed report of unilateral testicular overgrowth in BWS. We revised common causes of painless unilateral scrotal masses in the pediatric age. Considering both the overall frequency of neoplasia and the malignancies predisposition in BWS, a testicular cancer should be carefully ruled out through a close follow-up, before stating a benign condition. A normal ultrasound pattern, together with normal serum hormonal levels and negative tumor markers, make testicular neoplasms highly unlikely.
