image 		A 74-year-old man presented to the emergency department with back pain and trouble walking. Computed tomography of the abdomen and pelvis showed that the back pain was caused by retroperitoneal lymph-adenopathy. However, lower slices (much lower) revealed a scrotal mass as the cause of his walking difficulties.
