  • Title: Metastatic tumors involving testis.
    Author: Almagro UA.
    Journal: Urology; 1988 Oct; 32(4):357-60. PubMed ID: 3176228.
    Abstract:
    Two cases of metastatic tumors involving the testis are reported: one from an adenocarcinoma of the prostate and the other from an adenocarcinoma of the colon. The first was found incidentally in the orchiectomy specimen done for prostatic cancer while the other was noted clinically as a part of a widely disseminated disease. Although there are numerous pathways through which tumors may metastasize to the testis, the occurrence of testicular metastasis is extremely rare. The reason for this rarity remains unknown.
