Primary adenocarcinoma of rete testis is a very rare neoplasm of elderly males. Herein, a case of primary adenocarcinoma of rete testis in a 43 years old man is being reported who presented with a left sided scrotal mass. Scrotal ultrasonography suspected a malignant growth and a diagnosis of a poorly differentiated carcinoma was made on fine needle aspiration cytology. Radical orchiectomy was done. Histopathological examination revealed a primary papillary adenocarcinoma of rete testis. On follow up, he presented with metastasis in left inguinal lymph node. Block dissection of the inguinal nodes was done, and the patient has remained disease free for 1 year postoperatively.
