Testicular sarcoidosis masquerading as testicular carcinoma
Journal Title: Central European Journal of Urology - Year 2014, Vol 67, Issue 3
Abstract
We present a case of a 27–year–old man with a history of weight loss. A chest x–ray demonstrated hilar lymphadenopathy and he was treated with anti tuberculosis treatment. He noticed a painless left scrotal swelling and a scrotal ultrasound scan raised the possibility of testicular cancer. He underwent an orchidectomy and histology confirmed a testicular sarcoidosis. He was commenced on steroid treatment.
