The usual sites of metastasis are inguinal nodes, retroperitoneal lymph nodes and lung. Herein, we describe a patient with mesothelioma of testis, who presented with paraneoplastic glomerulopathy and asymptomatic solitary mediastinal lymphadenopathy on serial computed tomography imaging after radical orchiectomy. A diagnosis of metastatic lymph nodal disease was set by using convex-probe endobronchial ultrasound (EBUS) with transbronchial needle aspiration. We also briefly discuss clinical, etiological, pathological and therapeutical aspects of the disease, and highlight the paramount importance of real-time EBUS as the preferred method in the diagnostic approach of mediastinal lesions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.4103\/0973-1482.146104","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2015,10,9]],"date-time":"2015-10-09T11:54:49Z","timestamp":1444391689000},"page":"670","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Paraneoplastic nephritic syndrome and concurrent solitary mediastinal lymph node metastasis from mesothelioma of testis diagnosed by endobronchial ultrasound"],"prefix":"10.4103","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Michael","family":"Doris","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Elvira-Markela","family":"Antonogiannaki","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Stamatis","family":"Katsenos","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"276","reference":[{"key":"R1-148-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"77","DOI":"10.1016\/S1607-551X(09)70044-0","article-title":"Malignant mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis testis: A case report and literature review","volume":"25","author":"Chen","year":"2009","journal-title":"Kaohsiung J Med Sci"},{"key":"R2-148-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"183","DOI":"10.1002\/1097-0142(195701\/02)10:1<183::AID-CNCR2820100127>3.0.CO;2-1","article-title":"Papillary mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis","volume":"10","author":"Barbera","year":"1957","journal-title":"Cancer"},{"key":"R3-148-20231126","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"59","DOI":"10.1023\/A:1025952129438","article-title":"Malignant mesothelioma of the tunica vaginalis.
