Abscessed Inguinal Metastasis of Testicular Tumor. Case Report

Abstract

The testicular tumor metastatic spread via the lymphatic system, and the anatomical distribution of this, finds his target in the retroperitoneal nodes. Male patient 28 years old with a history of bilateral orchidopexy is presented. It was performed a left orchiectomy and a biopsy of the ulcerated right inguinal mass, with diagnosis of malignant teratoma. Metastatic testicular tumors in inguinal nodes are extremely rare. However, we believe that in patients with a history of scrotal surgeries and inguinal mass, must suspect for a testicular cancer.
