[Testicular mesothelioma. Report of a case].

Contribution of one case of malignant testicular mesothelioma. A highly malignant tumour the diagnosis and specific treatment of which is not clearly defined. The correct diagnosis should be based on a series of features not only clinical (quick re-accumulation of liquid in the inverted hydrocele) but also gross (multiple paratesticular nodes) and microscopic, supported by immunohistochemical techniques. The latter is based both in ruling an adenocarcinoma out (CEA-, LeuM1-, Vimentine- to tumoral cells), and in the reactivity of more specific antigens (CAM5.2(K-8)+ and Vimentine+ to stromal cells). The choice treatment is inguinal orchiectomy with adjuvant chemotherapy. No standard chemotherapeutical approaches have been defined.
