Colon Cancer Metastasis to Spermatic Cord Presenting as an Inguinal Hernia.
Introduction: Inguinal hernias are very common. Their pathology and treatment are typically strait forward. Metastatic cancer can sometimes present as an inguinal hernia, but this presentation is often local metastasis.
Case presentation: Herein we describe the case of a 68-year-old man who presented with a 2-month history of an inguinal hernia. Intraoperatively, the hernia sac was found to contain a mass attached to the spermatic cord, which was later determined to be a metastatic lesion from a locally advanced proximal transverse colon adenocarcinoma.
Conclusion: A spermatic cord mass can be a rare presentation of colon cancer metastasis. Colon cancer should be considered a rare but possible primary lesion when evaluating tumors of the spermatic cord.
