Abstract (2. Language): 
Non-Hodgkin lymphoma of the testis is an uncommon disease. It accounts for 1%- 9% of all testicular neoplasms. Despite this low overall incidence, it is the most common testicular malignancy over the age of 60. Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma is the most common histolojical pattern among primary testicular lymphomas. Although there is not a standart therapy especially for stage I and II disease, treatment with doksorubicinbased chemotherapy following orchiectomy is recommend in these stages. In advanced stages (III and IV), combination chemotherapy is the treatment of choise. Here, we report the case of a 69 -year- old man with primary testicular lymphoma and discuss the clinical features and treatment of this disease.

Abstract (Original Language): 
Primer testis non-Hodgkin lenfoması nadir görülen bir hastalıktır. Tüm testis malignitelerinin %1-9’unu oluşturur. Nadir görümesine rağmen, 60 yaşın üzerinde en sık görülen testis malignitesidir. En sık rastlanan histolojik tipi diffüz büyük B hücreli lenfomadır. Özellikle erken evre hastalıkta standart bir tedavi mevcut olmamakla birlikte, evre I ve II hastalıkta, orşiektomi sonrası doksorubisinli kemoterapi uygulaması önerilmektedir. İleri evre (evre III ve IV) hastalıkta kombinasyon kemoterapisi tercih edilen tedavi modalitesidir.
