Abstract
NOTARIO BARBA, Verónica; CARBAYO GARCIA, José Juan and MAGALLANES GAMBOA, Jeffrey O.. Testicle lump. Rev Clin Med Fam [online]. 2016, vol.9, n.2, pp.131-134. ISSN 2386-8201.
We present the case of a 33 year-old man with an enlargement of the right testicle during the last three months without any other symptoms. Testicular cancer is a relatively rare tumour that represents about 1-1.5 % of male cancers. It mainly affects young men in the third or fourth decade of life. Diagnosis is principally based on clinical suspicion, testicle ultrasound and serum marker test.
Keywords : Testicular neoplasms; Ultrasonography; Seminoma.
