title: Epididymal metastasis of a prostatic carcinoma.
abstract: We report the case of a 73-year-old patient who presented with a local recurrence of a prostatic carcinoma which had metastasized to the right epididymis. The histopathological examination of the resected tissue after transurethral resection of the prostate 8 years before revealed a pluriformal adenocarcinoma of the prostate, but the patient refused any kind of therapy at that time.
