Metastatic cancer to the testis is a rare phenomenon of prostate carcinoma with only 80 cases reported in the literature. Most of these secondary testicular tumors were diagnosed on routine pathohistological examination of testicular tissue after plastic orchiectomy. In none of these cases metachronous development of these metastases has been described. For the first time we report on a 75-year old patient who developed a prostate carcinoma metastatis to the right testicle three years after undergoing subcapsular orchiectomy. This case shows that the urologist has to think about a metastatic cancer when he sees a testicular tumor also after plastic orchiectomy.
睾丸转移性癌是前列腺癌的一种罕见现象，文献中仅报道了80例。这些继发性睾丸肿瘤大多是在睾丸假体切除术后对睾丸组织进行常规病理组织学检查时诊断出来的。在这些病例中，均未描述这些转移灶的异时性发展情况。我们首次报告了一名75岁的患者，他在接受包膜下睾丸切除术后三年出现了前列腺癌转移至右侧睾丸的情况。该病例表明，泌尿外科医生在睾丸假体切除术后看到睾丸肿瘤时，也必须考虑到转移性癌。
