Paratesticular mucinous cystadenocarcinoma: metastasis from pancreatic cancer

Int J Urol. 2004 Dec;11(12):1147-9. doi: 10.1111/j.1442-2042.2004.00964.x.

Abstract

We experienced a case of a paratesticular mucinous adenocarcinoma from primary pancreatic cancer. A 67-year old man presented with a scrotal mass. Scrotal ultrasound showed a cystic mass on the testis. Radical orchiectomy was performed and the tumor was revealed as a mucinous cystadenocarcinoma separated from epididymis and testis. Metastatic cancer was suspected and abdominal computed tomography showed pancreatic cancer. We report this rare case of metastatic paratesticular cystoadenocarcinoma.
