Authors report a rare case of testicular metastasis from carcinoma of the prostate in a patient treated with anti-androgen therapy. The report of this kind of testicular metastasis was more frequent in the past years, when the neoplasm was often treated with bilateral orchiectomy. Metastatic carcinoma of the prostate to the testis is commonly accepted as a sign of advanced disease and it is usually accompanied by multiple metastases to other organs. The prognostic significance of testicular localization is still unknown.
作者报告了一例接受抗雄激素治疗的前列腺癌患者发生睾丸转移的罕见病例。过去几年中，这类睾丸转移的报告更为常见，当时肿瘤常采用双侧睾丸切除术治疗。前列腺癌转移至睾丸通常被认为是疾病晚期的标志，且通常伴有其他器官的多处转移。睾丸转移部位的预后意义仍不明确。
