摘要：

Testicular microlithiasis is a rare condition of the testis that has characteristic sonographic features and is thought to be associated with an increased prevalence of testicular tumors [1-5]. Because of the risk of tumor development, we now perform annual sonograms on all patients with testicular microlithiasis. We report a case in which a malignant yolk sac tumor of the testis was discovered on a routine annual sonogram obtained because the patient was known to have testicular microlithiasis.
