Gynaecomastia occurs in up to 10% of patients with malignant testicular tumours. In most cases a testicular mass will be easily palpable but occasionally these tumours are occult. Ultrasound has been shown to be of value in the detection of occult neoplasms in patients presenting with nodal disease. Two patients with gynaecomastia and palpably normal testes are presented in whom testicular tumour was diagnosed by ultrasonic examination of the scrotum.
In a five years period (1983-1988) we were faced with three patients who had inadequate primary surgical management for their testicular tumours in the form of local testicular biopsy through a scrotal incision. Management of two of these patients by a high inguinal orchidectomy with wide local excision at the site of previous scrotal biopsy followed by a combination of chemotherapy and radiotherapy yielded good outcome.
