Scrototesticular Irradiation in Primary Testicular Lymphoma: A Guide for Scrotal Simulation (Dr Kanhu’s Burger Technique)

Primary testicular lymphoma (PTL) is a rare variant of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma that is predominant in old age group. Painless testicular swelling is the most common presentation. The standard of care is surgery in the form of radical orchiectomy followed by adjuvant chemotherapy and central nervous system prophylaxis. Because of blood-testis barrier, contralateral testis acts as a sanctuary site for chemotherapy to act and hence scrototesticular radiation is advocated in order to reduce the chance of testicular relapse. Due to lack of any consensus simulation procedure, we propose here a step-by-step procedure for simulation of a case of PTL using a case scenario.
