Abstract
Two cases of testicular sarcoma were encountered in Brazzaville university hospital. The first consisted of a 41-year old man who was admitted in the polyvalent surgeon unit for an enlarged testicle. He underwent left orchiectomy. He did not come back for his regular visit 8 months later. The second patient was a young man of 21 years who was seeking care for an increase of his left testicle seen eight months before. He underwent left orchiectomy and according to the histopathologic evaluation, he had a testicular spindle cells sarcoma. Three months after surgery, the patient showed an alteration of his general state while liver metastases and left hydronephrosis were observed. Chemotherapy with vincristin and cisplatin was initiated. Complete remission was seen after three cycles of chemotherapy, with the disappearance of liver metastases and the restoration of a good general health status until 28 months after surgery in 30 June 2008.
