The testicular tumour is the most common solid malignancy in males between the ages of 15 and 35 years. Testicular tumours most commonly present with a painless testicular mass. Fournier's gangrene is necrotising fasciitis of the genital, perineal, and perianal region characterized by the microvascular thrombosis and skin necrosis, and is most commonly seen in elderly males with the comorbid conditions. To the best of our knowledge, there is no published case of testicular tumour presenting as Fournier's gangrene. Herein, we report a case of a young adult male, otherwise healthy, who presented to the emergency room with Fournier's gangrene and was found to have a metastatic post-pubertal pure yolk-sac tumour of the testis which is extremely rare in the adults. Key Words: Fournier's gangrene, Yolk sac tumour, Testicular neoplasm.
睾丸肿瘤是 15 至 35 岁男性中最常见的实体恶性肿瘤。睾丸肿瘤最常见的表现为无痛性睾丸肿块。Fournier 坏疽是生殖器、会阴和肛周区域的坏死性筋膜炎，其特征为微血管血栓形成和皮肤坏死，最常见于患有合并症的老年男性。据我们所知，没有发表的睾丸肿瘤表现为 Fournier 坏疽的病例。在此，我们报告一例年轻成年男性，身体健康，因 Fournier 坏疽就诊于急诊室，发现患有罕见的成人睾丸性卵黄囊瘤转移。关键词：Fournier 坏疽；卵黄囊瘤；睾丸肿瘤。
