Primary testicular lymphoma (PTL) is a rare testicular malignancy, despite being considered the most common testicular tumor in patients older than 60 years. Primary testicular lymphoma represents only 1%-9% of testicular neoplasms. Few studies have been published regarding its clinical features and management. This study aimed to analyze the clinical characteristics and outcomes of PTL.
