Abstract (2. Language): 
Primary testicular non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma is an uncommon extra nodal presentation, constituting less than 1% of all non – Hodgkin’s lymphoma. The disease is typically present in patient’saged sixth and seventh decade of life. Both testes involvement is equal in frequency and in approximately 6% of testicular lymphomas will have bilateral involvement, testicular non –Hodgkin’s lymphoma has a relapse site in the central nervous system which is actually a rare disease. In our case there was non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma of right testis without any CNS involvement. Primary testicular non –Hodgkin’s is an uncommon entity and with combined modalities with high inguinal orchiectomy and chemotherapy has good outcome.
