Paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is a rare pediatric malignancy often misdiagnosed as benign conditions like epididymitis. We report a 4-year-old boy with paratesticular RMS and retroperitoneal metastasis, initially mistaken for epididymitis.

We report a 54-year-old female with fever, cough, weight loss, and arthralgia. Chest imaging showed multiple pulmonary nodules; serology revealed positive anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies -proteinase 3, and lung biopsy demonstrated necrotizing granulomatous inflammation with Nocardia species.
