Deskripsi
Pure embryonal carcinoma (EC) is a rare malignant tumor that primarily occurs in infants with a sex development disorder and adults aged in their thirties to forties. This tumor behaves more aggressively than other germ cell tumors in the testis, and most of them should undergo surgery or chemotherapy. However, only a few case reports have involved imaging, and most of them are limited. Here, we present a case of pure EC in the testis of a 27-year-old male with multimodal ultrasonography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging.
