Abstract

Primary testicular lymphoma ia an rarely testicular tumor which accounts for 1-9% of all testicular malignants. Despite this low overall incidence, it is the most common testicular malignancy over the patient age of 60. Diffuse large B cell lymphoma is the most common histological subtype. The most common presentation is painless scrotal mass. Clinical stage is the most important prognostic factor. The prognosis is worse than other testicular tumors. There is no standard protocol to treatment which chemotherapy with doksorubicin based following orchiectomy is recommendation in early stage. Herein we presented two cases in the last 4 years in our department with the literature.
