José Antonio Contreras Ibañez1, Pedro Muriel Cueto, José María Baez Perea.   

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To report a rare process and to stimulate clinicians and pathologists to have this possibility present in their diagnoses.
METHODS: We report the case of an adult male with pain and swelling in the left inguinal region and increased volume of the homolateral testicle.
CONCLUSIONS: It is appropriate to bear in mind the possibility of testicular metastasis of a primary unknown tumor in adult males since metastatic affectation can constitute the first manifestation of the disease.
