Abstract

This report describes a primary testicular carcinoid. A 41-year-old male was hospitalized with an asymptomatic right testicular mass. A high inguinal orchiectomy was done after the diagnosis of the testicular tumor. Pathologically, the tumor showed the typical appearance of a carcinoid tumor. A computed tomographic scan and other studies could not demonstrate any metastasis elsewhere. He has remained well and without any evidence of recurrence.
