title: Asymptomatic Solitary Metastasis to the Testis From Prostate Carcinoma Detected by FDG PET/CT.
abstract: Testicular metastases, despite their proximity, from prostate adenocarcinoma are rare and usually found along with bone or other visceral metastases. We herein present a case with recurrent disease of prostate adenocarcinoma as solitary testicular metastasis detected by 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (FDG PET/CT).
