Past medical history was unremarkable, except for urolithiasis, and he denied taking any medication. No risk factors were present (no exposure to tobacco) and there was no family history for neoplastic disease. He was asymptomatic, and at physical examination nothing relevant was found. Laboratory workup (complete blood cell count, renal function and electrolytes, hepatic tests, calcium-phosphorus metabolism, high sensitivity c-reactive protein, sedimentation rate, serum protein electrophoresis) was normal. Left inguinal ultrasonography showed a 4-cm well-circumscribed hypoechoic lesion, suggestive of adenopathy. Fine needle aspiration cytology revealed small to medium-sized blue cells with scant cytoplasm, pleomorphic nuclei, and molding. Surgical excision was performed, and anatomopathological analysis established the diagnosis of small cell neuroendocrine carcinoma: immunohistochemistry showed positivity for synaptophysin, CK AE1/AE3 (perinuclear dot-like stain), CAM5.2, chromogranin and was negative for TTF-1 and CK20, with a Ki-67 score of 80–90% (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>).</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0005"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0015" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">A metastasis of SCNEC was suspected, and a thorough search for primary tumor was conducted: repeated dermatological assessment of inguinal region and left inferior limb showed no abnormalities; upper and lower endoscopic studies were normal; computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of neck, thorax, abdomen and pelvic region did not reveal any suspicious lesion; 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) study had no abnormal radiopharmaceutical uptake.
