Metastatic Testicular Carcinoid Tumour
Carcinoid tumours occur predominantly in the gastrointestinal tract and bronchial system of the lungs, but they can originate in less common anatomical sites such as the testes, which accounts for <1% of all testicular neoplasms. Carcinoid tumour is a rare and indolent neoplasm with the potential for distant metastasis. We report on a man with metastatic right testicular carcinoid tumour who ha...
متن کاملSuccessful management of an asymptomatic bilateral synchronous testicular carcinoid tumor with a testicular-sparing surgery
parenchyma immediately adjacent to the cysts showed decreased echogenicity compared with the parenchyma elsewhere with multiple microcysts communicating with solid lesions of mixed echogenicity, highly suspicious for malignancy. Computed tomography (CT) of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis showed no abnormal findings. In agreement with the patient, we decided to perform a bilateral testicular ingu...

Testicular carcinoid generally presents either with a palpable (painful or painless) or rarely a nonpalpable mass (when it is diagnosed incidentally on scrotal imaging) of the involved testis. An ipsilateral testicular carcinoid presenting exclusively with contralateral testicular symptoms has never been described in the literature to date. We report a case of nonpalpable left testicular carcin...
متن کاملGerm cell origin of testicular carcinoid tumors.
PURPOSE Carcinoids are neuroendocrine tumors and most frequently occur within tissues derived from the embryonic gut. These tumors can occur in any organ site but are rare in the testis. The cell type giving rise to testicular carcinoid is unknown. We hypothesized that testicular carcinoid may have a germ cell origin. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We describe our analysis of protein and genetic markers...
متن کاملMetachronous bronchial carcinoid tumor.
