A 66-year-old male patient complained of swelling of the contents of the left scrotum, a mass in the left abdomen, and appetite loss. Abdominal CT and MR revealed a large mass in the left side of the abdominal aorta extending from the left renal hilus to the pelvis, accompanied by hydronephrosis and hydroureter on the left. A diagnosis of left testicular tumor was made, and left radical orchiectomy was performed. The pathological diagnosis was B-cell-type diffuse lymphoma, large cell type. The patient transferred to the department of hematology and was treated with six courses of multi-drug chemotherapy (MCNU-CHOP). The abdominal mass markedly decreased in size, but it relapsed, and the patient was treated with a course of another regimen (MACOP-B). Pneumonia developed as a complication, the patient's general condition worsened, and he died.
