Testicular chondrosarcoma

Abstract

Only 5% of all urological tumors are accounted as Testicular tumors. Furthermore, a well differentiated chondrosarcoma of the testis is extremely rare. Thus, we are representing a rare case of testicular chondrosarcoma. A 43-year-old male with right scrotal swelling did Doppler Ultrasonography demonstrating a large heterogenous hypervascular mass. Patient has had uneventful radical inguinal orchiectomy. The histopathology of the resected tumor reveled 50% seminoma – 50% teratoma with somatic type malignancy (well differentiated chondrosarcoma). Only few cases were reported in the medical literature for testicular chondrosarcoma. Thus, reporting such cases will add to the literature and shall help in establishing a management strategy.
