[Lymphomas of the urogenital system. Review of the entirety and report of 2 cases with testicular localization].
Lymphomas comprise a group of diseases of the lymphoreticular system arising from any of the cellular elements of lymph nodes, but they can also affect other organs or systems such as the urogenital system. This is the normal process, but there exist some diseases diagnosed as lymphomas within the urogenital system with no evidence of generalized involvement that are classified as primary lymphomas. We analyzed the different urogenital tract organs that may be affected, with special reference to the most interesting aspects of this pathology. Furthermore, two cases of testicular lymphoma are described. In one of them, testicular involvement was the presenting feature of lymphomatosis. The other case was a patient with a diagnosed prostatic adenocarcinoma. The diagnosis was made on the pathological findings of the orchidectomy specimen. The outcome was poor in both cases.
