Primary testicular lymphoma is a rare testicular neoplasm that mainly affects elderly patients, with Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) being a known risk factor in the younger population. Approximately 20% of patients will have disseminated disease with extra-nodal involvement at clinical presentation. Rarely, direct spread along the spermatic cord and gonadal vessels can occur and has been described in the literature. We present two cases of this phenomenon where the primary testicular tumour has spread along the gonadal vein to its origin at the inferior vena cava.

Spermatic cord lymphoma is a rare lethal disease. It has a poor prognosis even in stage I or II disease when treated locally, therefore, multidisciplinary treatment for early stage is recommended. On the other hand, the treatment of choice for stage III or IV spermatic cord lymphoma remains to be determined. It is said that spermatic cord lymphoma is clinicopathologically similar to primary testicular lymphoma, therefore the treatment of spermatic cord lymphoma has often been determined by reference to the recommended treatment for primary testicular lymphoma. Here we report a new case of spermatic cord lymphoma, which was found in stage IV disease. We also review thirty-three cases which have been reported as spermatic cord lymphoma to date, and discuss treatment options.

Inferior vena cava (IVC) aneurysms remain rare vascular entities that carry significant morbidity and potential mortality. Given the paucity of literature on this clinical entity, there is no consensus regarding management guidelines, and it is important to continue to add to the current literature body. In this report, we describe the case of a 64-year-old male diagnosed with a type III IVC aneurysm. Here, we describe this clinical presentation and discuss our management of this aneurysm in the context of the wider, yet limited literature body.

AbstractUnlike other pediatric extra cranial solid neoplasms, neuroblastomas have very low incidence of pulmonary metastases. Neuroblastomas also tend to encase rather than infiltrate the major vessels with very low incidence of tumor thrombus. Even in cases with inferior vena cava tumor thrombosis, pulmonary metastases are a rare occurrence. These patients usually show widespread disseminated disease at presentation. We present a rare case of adrenal neuroblastoma with tumor thrombus and bilateral pulmonary metastases at presentation. This presentation can be confused with adrenocortical carcinoma and differentiating between the two is essential for further management.
