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). ? 2015 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
