[Metastasis of colon adenocarcinoma to the epididymis and spermatic cord]. / Metástasis de adenocarcinoma de colon en epidídimo y cordón espermático.

OBJECTIVE: To report the case of an epididymal and spermatic cord metastasis of a colon adenocarcinoma. METHODS/RESULTS: We present the case of a 67 years old man, who presents several months after subtotal left colectomy for a left colon adenocarcinoma (pT3 NoMo), with a symptomatic right palpable testicular tumour. Right orchiectomy was done, demonstrating colon adenocarcinoma metastasis. CONCLUSIONS: Epididymal and spermatic cord metastases are very infrequent and they usually are found incidentally after prostate cancer orchyectomy.
