Abstract

A 77-year-old man presented with a painless swelling of the right testis. A high inguinal orchiectomy was done under the diagnosis of testicular tumor. Histologic diagnosis was carcinoid with teratoma. Computerized tomography revealed multiple lung and retroperitoneal lymph node metastases 4 months after orchiectomy. Chemotherapy had no effect on metastases. He died of lung metastasis 3 months after the recurrence.
