Testicular and Spermatic Cord Metastases from Gastric Adenocarcinoma: An Unusual Case

The metastasis of gastric cancer to the testis or spermatic cord is very rare; however, simultaneous testicular and spermatic cord metastases are even rarer. Here, we report an unusual case of a 54-year-old male patient who had undergone radical gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma more than two y...

description The metastasis of gastric cancer to the testis or spermatic cord is very rare; however, simultaneous testicular and spermatic cord metastases are even rarer. Here, we report an unusual case of a 54-year-old male patient who had undergone radical gastrectomy for gastric adenocarcinoma more than two years before. He complained of palpable painful masses in the right scrotum and inguinal area occurring for more than half a year. Enhanced computed tomography (CT) separately showed an enhanced soft tissue mass in the right testicular and spermatic cord areas. Therefore, a right radical orchiectomy was conducted. The pathology was consistent with the metastases of gastric adenocarcinoma.
