  • Malignant lymphomas of the testis
    Berkmen, Ferhat
    Background. The aim of the study was to analyse 20 patients with malignant Iymphomas of the testis, and to discuss the necessity of immunocytochemical staining to confirm the histologic diagnosis and ... an effective treatment policy. Patients and methods. Ten patients with malignant Iymphomas of the testis were reviewed in order to identify and study the incidence, histologic findings, the type of treatment administered and the overall outcome. Results.Testicular malignant lymphomas were identified ten times between 2984 and 1999. Bilateral tumours occurred simultaneously in 4 patients, and a metachronous malignancy and testicular relapses developed in 2 patients. Of the remaining patients 4 had unilateral testicular involvement, None had elevated AFP and beta-HCG or a history of undecided testis. Eight of patients were younger than 50 years. Five of the lymphomas were high grade, 3 were intermediate and 2 were low grade diffuse non-Hodgkin's lyrnphoma. All patients were initially treated with radical orchiectomy and were, according to their clinical stage, treated with chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy. Five of 10 patients were alive with no evidence of disease with follow-up ranging from 9 to 62 months. The remaining 5 patients died between 3 and 42 months respectively. ConcIusions. Testicular lymphomas are similar to those of testicular germ cell tumours and account for approximately 5% of alI testis tumours and represents 1% of all lymphomas. Testicular Iymphomas differ from germ cell tumours of the testis by following points. (Abstract truncated at 2000 characters).
