Testicular cancer found incidentally during gender-affirming orchiectomy is infrequently reported in the literature. This report details a 27-year-old transgender woman whose testicular cancer was discovered incidentally upon routine histopathologic examination of the orchiectomy specimen. The patient did not present with any clinical signs of malignancy. There was no evidence of metastases after further workup and the patient was able to resume hormone therapy after surgery. Transgender individuals must be screened according to their natal anatomy and even in absence of clinical signs excised tissue should be examined for possible malignancy.
在性别确认睾丸切除术中偶然发现的睾丸癌在文献中鲜有报道。本报告详细介绍了一名27岁的跨性别女性，其睾丸癌是在对睾丸切除标本进行常规组织病理学检查时偶然发现的。该患者没有任何恶性肿瘤的临床症状。进一步检查后没有转移的迹象，患者术后能够恢复激素治疗。跨性别个体必须根据其出生时的解剖结构进行筛查，即使没有临床症状，切除的组织也应检查是否可能存在恶性肿瘤。
