Pathological stage IE lymphoma of the testis treated by local surgery alone

Testicular lymphoma is a rare tumour. Usually it is found in old men as part of a generalized lymphoma, and it carries a poor prognosis. We report a 30-year-old man with pathological stage I_E lymphoma of the testis who has been successfully treated following staging laparotomy and splenectomy by radical orchidectomy alone. Localized testicular lymphoma is a small specific group with a good prognosis.
