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...
متن کاملCase report: Extragonadal mixed germ cell tumor in the thigh
Germ cell tumors (GCTs) in males predominantly arise from testicular tissue, but 2e5% arise in extragonadal sites with no evidence of a primary testicular tumor, thus called extragonadal germ cell tumors (EGCTs). They mostly arise in the mid-axis of the body; 50e70% in the mediastinum, 30e40% in the retroperitoneal space, and fewer arise in the pineal gland and the suprasellar region. Few occur...
متن کاملExtragonadal retroperitoneal germ cell tumor: primary versus metastases?
OBJECTIVE Primary extragonadal germ cell tumors are rare and their histogenetic origin is not clear. We describe two cases presenting as primary retroperitoneal germ cell tumors without clinical evidence of testicular tumor. METHODS A 21 and 18 years-old patients presented retroperitoneal choriocarcinoma and yolk sac tumor, respectively. In both cases, testicular palpation was not suspicious ...
متن کاملExtragonadal germ cell tumor with the “burned-out” phenomenon presented a multiple retroperitoneal masses: a case report
retroperitoneal lymph node biopsy which revealed no evidence of malignancy, but detected 4–5 mm tumor necrosis foci in some areas. The patient followed by three cycles of chemotherapy with bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin protocol. Follow-up CT after chemotherapy revealed that the para-aortic lymphadenopathies had decreased in size to 3.4 cm × 2 cm × 1.6 cm. The patient then underwent a retr...
متن کاملExtragonadal form of germ cell pineal tumour: a case report
area for germ cell tumours. They are mostly observed in children. In adults they are more common in men in the second or third decade of life. Pineal tumours have a diverse histopathology. Their growth is slow and the symptoms result from the compression of adjacent cerebral structures. One of the histopathological forms is germinal tumours, including mild or malignant teratoma. They have the a...
