Large cell lung cancer metastases to the testis are scarce, although it is the most common malignancy and the most common site of metastases for breast, colorectal and kidney cancers. We hereby report a 28-year-old male patient admitted to our hospital with a chief complaint of scrotal enlargement, accompanied by chest pain and progressive dyspnea. The definite diagnosis was malignant pleural mesothelioma with the synchronous occurrence of large cell lung cancer with testicular metastasis. Sophisticated clinical manifestation of symptoms led to a time-consuming diagnosis, while the patient's condition deteriorated rapidly. Herein, we present this case to share our hard-learnt experience to increase clinician awareness and contribute to the information in the literature.
虽然睾丸转移是最常见的恶性肿瘤和乳腺癌、结直肠癌、肾癌最常见的转移部位，但大细胞肺癌转移至睾丸的情况却十分罕见。我们在此报告一例 28 岁男性患者，因阴囊增大、胸痛和进行性呼吸困难为主诉就诊于我院。明确诊断为恶性胸膜间皮瘤，同时合并大细胞肺癌伴睾丸转移。复杂的临床表现导致诊断耗时较长，而患者病情迅速恶化。在此，我们报告该病例以分享我们的宝贵经验，提高临床医生的认识，并为文献中的信息做出贡献。
