description Metastatic carcinoma to the testis, excluding lymphoma and leukemia, is an extremely rare condition. The most frequent primary site is prostate cancer. These lesions present clinically either as the first sign of malignancy or more commonly as a complication during the course of known disease. We present the first case of a squamous cell carcinoma of the lung diagnosed with a testicular mass, which is very rarely seen in literature, to our knowledge.
