Hepatocellular Carcinoma Presenting as Testicular Mass A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
An 84-year-old man presented with an enlarged scrotum. He had no gastrointestinal complaints. Scrotal ultrasonography showed a 2-cm left testicular mass and a 1-cm mass on the right. The serum PSA and -HCG were in the normal range, but his AFP level was very high. Abdominal ultrasonography revealed a huge tumor in the left lobe of liver. A bilateral orchiectomy was performed, and pathology examination demonstrated hepatocellular carcinoma metastatic to the left testis. Adenocarcinoma from any source very rarely metastasizes to the testis. We found only two reports of hepatocellular carcinoma with testicular metastases in the English literature.
