We present a case report of a 13-year-old male patient who presented with acute testicular pain and testicular swelling. An urgent ultrasound scan demonstrated a large, irregular, poorly circumscribed, hypervascular right testicular mass. A staging CT scan revealed no distant metastases and an orchidectomy demonstrated a pure embryonal carcinoma of the right testis with lymphovascular invasion.
