Metastasis to the tunica vaginalis testis from a primary mucinous tumor of the cecum.

Objectives: We review the literature about secondary testicular tumors.

Methods: We present the case of a patient with a metastatic mucus-secreting testicular tumor who presented in the emergency room with symptoms of acute scrotum 10 months after surgery for a mixed tumor of the cecum. This type of tumor is rare, and the treatment of choice is orchiectomy; nevertheless, the prognosis of such metastasis remains poor.
