ABSTRACT
Isolated testicular involvement in pediatric lymphoma is rare and poses diagnostic challenges. In this study, the case of an isolated testicular B-lymphoblastic lymphoma in a 9-year-old boy is discussed with an emphasis on the difficulties in diagnosing and treating such an unusual presentation. This example illustrates the importance of considering lymphoblastic lymphoma in the differential diagnosis of an unidentified source of testicular enlargement. Furthermore, it highlights the possible efficacy of systemic chemotherapy with or without surgical excision. The article advances our knowledge of this unusual clinical situation.
ABSTRACT
Using the US National Inpatient Sample dataset (2010 to 2018), we compared outcomes of neonates with Tetralogy of Fallot who had early primary surgical repair (1726 neonate) and those who had staged palliative intervention with transcatheter (1702 neonate) or surgical palliative shunt (2661 neonate).
