GONZALEZ VESTER, Ricardo Javier  and  BARRETO ROMAN, Sergio Adrián. Testicular tumor. Rev. Nac. (Itauguá) [online]. 2023, vol.15, n.2, pp.89-92. ISSN 2072-8174.  https://doi.org/10.18004/rdn2023.dic.02.089.092.

Introduction:

testicular tumors represent 4% of urogenital neoplasms, of which seminoma is the most common malignant tumor of the testicle in young men. The prognosis is good with total orchiectomy, reaching a survival of 95% in 10 years. Case Presentation: a 28-year-old male patient with a non-painful tumor in the scrotal region of 10 years of evolution, went to the urology service due to discomfort and a significant increase in the tumor in the last year. Conclusion: the testicular tumor has a very good prognosis if it is detected in time, taking into account that with the physical examination the diagnosis can already be made.

Keywords : Testicular tumor; urogenital neoplasia; seminoma.
