A Rare Case Report of a Metastatic Tumor of the Spermatic Cord Arising from Pancreatic Cancer
Journal Title: Journal of Cancer and Tumor International - Year 2017, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
A 60-year-old patient complaining of pain and elevation of the right scrotal contents, who had been treated for pancreatic cancer, was suspected of having spermatic cord tumor. He underwent high orchiectomy for pain management and pathological diagnosis. The tumor was a metastatic adenocarcinoma from pancreatic cancer. Pancreatic cancer accompanied by spermatic cord metastasis is extremely rare. In patients with a mass in the spermatic cord and a history of neoplasm, the possibility of metastasis from the primary cancer should be considered.
