ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To summarize the clinicopathological features of testicular lymphomas (TL).</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The medical records of 65 patients diagnosed with TL between 2008.1.1 and 2014.11.30 were retrospectively reviewed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>TL was classified as primary (PTL) when there's no prior diagnosis of an extara-testicular lymphoma/leukemia and no concurrent widespread disease, except for the concomitant involvement of ipsilateral inguinal lymph nodes; otherwise it was classified as secondary (STL). Of our patients group, 46 (70.8%) cases were classified primary TL as and the other 19 (29.2%） cases were secondary TL. All patients presented with painless testicular swelling. The median age of STL was significantly younger than that of PTL [65 (12-88) ys vs 13 (1-75) ys, P<0.001]. Additionally, a striking difference in the distribution of histological subtypes was observed between the PTL and STL patients group.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Primary TLs were more common than secondary. Striking differences in the distribution of patients'age and histology were found between STL and PTL.</p>
