non-seminomatous germ cell tumor metastasis to the jaw: an imaging case report

testicular cancer typically spreads to the lymph nodes, but hematogenous dissemination to distant organs can also occur. bone metastasis is uncommon and is thought to be a poor prognostic indicator. jaw metastasis is exceedingly rare but is of great clinical significance, since it may be the first sign of an occult testicular cancer or the first evidence of relapse of a known tumor. herein, we ...

A mediastinal somatic-type germ cell tumor with hepatic metastasis successfully treated by multiple modalities.

Rhabdomyosarcoma in the mediastinum coexisting with metastatic non-seminomatous germ cell tumor, so-called somatic-type malignancy, is a rare carcinoma and has poor survival. This study reports a case of diffuse and huge hepatic metastasis of non-seminomatous germ cell tumor associated with coexisting embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma in the mediastinum. A 31-year-old man presented with abdominal pain...

Isolated eyeball metastasis of non-seminomatous germ cell testicular tumor.

INTRODUCTION Testicular tumors most frequently metastasize to regional lymph nodes. Non-seminomatous tumor metastasis of testicle (NSGCTT) to the eyeball is rare. CASE REPORT We presented a 24-year old man, referred to the ophthalmologist due to acute pain and abrupt loss of sight in the left eye accompanied by its enlargement. Orbital and endocranial computerized tomography (CT) was carried ...

Primary Pulmonary Germ Cell Tumor with Bone Metastasis

Retroperitoneal Extragonadal Nonseminomatous Germ Cell Tumor with Synchronous Orbital Metastasis

A huge retroperitoneal tumor with a right orbital mass was detected and proved to be an extragonadal nonseminomatous germ cell tumor on biopsy. BEP chemotherapy caused some regression in orbital mass however no change in retroperitoneal tumor size as well as serum tumor marker levels occurred. Herein, we present a rarely seen entity of extragonadal retroperitoneal nonseminomatous germ cell tumo...
