Abstract

Testicular cancer is the most common solid malignancy affecting males between the ages of 15 and 35, although it accounts for only 1 percent of all cancers in men. In patients presenting with manifestations of extragonadal germ cell tumor or lymphoma, it is important to rule out a primary tumor in the testes, even when they do not present with symptoms such as testicular pain or mass. Here we describe a case of burned out tumor of testis with extensive metastases in a patient who had no testicular symptoms and discuss the importance of imaging and further management.
伴有广泛转移的退化睾丸精原细胞瘤
睾丸癌是影响15至35岁男性的最常见的实体恶性肿瘤,尽管它只占男性所有癌症的1%。对于表现为睾丸外生殖细胞瘤或淋巴瘤的患者,即使没有出现睾丸疼痛或肿块等症状,也要排除睾丸原发肿瘤。在此,我们描述了一个没有睾丸症状的睾丸烧伤肿瘤广泛转移的病例,并讨论了影像学检查和进一步治疗的重要性。
