Metastatic primary testicular carcinoid tumor remains a very rare condition. We report the first case of metastatic primary testicular carcinoid tumor where along retroperitoneal lymph node dissection excision of the Inferior Vena Cava was also performed. The rarity is further emphasised by the presence of a contralateral testicular dermoid cyst. Given the features of the tumor were not in keeping with the traditional predictors of metastases (primary tumor >7.3 cm, poor differentiation and the presence of carcinoid syndrome) this case adds valuable addition to the relatively limited literature available on this rare condition.
转移性原发性睾丸类癌肿瘤仍然是一种非常罕见的疾病。我们报告了首例转移性原发性睾丸类癌肿瘤病例,该病例在进行腹膜后淋巴结清扫时还切除了下腔静脉。对侧睾丸皮样囊肿的存在进一步凸显了这种罕见性。鉴于肿瘤的特征与转移的传统预测指标(原发性肿瘤>7.3 cm、低分化和类癌综合征的存在)不符,该病例为关于这种罕见疾病的相对有限的文献增添了有价值的内容。
