Post-orchidectomy retroperitoneal seminoma: A case report
Between 2 and 5% of malignant germ cell tumors in males arise at extragonadal sites. The origin of extragonadal retroperitoneal germ cell tumors remains controversial. Whether these develop primarily in the retroperitoneum or are metastases of a primary testicular tumor has long been debated. We report a 38-year-old male who presented with abdominal pain and was diagnosed with retroperitoneal s...
متن کاملRetroperitoneal schwannoma mimicking lymph node metastasis of seminoma.
We report a case of retroperitoneal schwannoma mimicking lymph node metastasis. A 32-year-old man presented with an intrascrotal mass, and underwent radical orchiectomy. Histological examination revealed a typical seminoma of the testis. Systemic work-up for staging demonstrated a retroperitoneal mass, which was located in the supra-hilar inter-aortocaval region. Under the diagnosis of retroper...
متن کاملPrimary retroperitoneal seminoma - embryology, histopathology and treatment particularities.
INTRODUCTION Retroperitoneal seminoma is a very rare form of cancer, with embryological origin represented by primordial germ cells from the urogenital ridges left behind during the fetal development. Extragenital germ cell tumors can also occur in the mediastinum or the pineal gland. The aim of this paper is to outline the particularities and draw embryological, histopatological and treatment ...
متن کاملRetroperitoneal seminoma with 'burned out' phenomenon in the testis.
The rare 'burned out' phenomenon in germ cell tumors is known as the presence of an extragonadal germ cell tumor without traces of neoplasm in the testis. This condition is different and less common from the primary extragonadal germ cell malignancies. These malignancies are treated surgically with or without adjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy and their prognosis is better than that of other...
متن کاملRetroperitoneal schwannoma mimicking metastatic seminoma: case report and literature review
If a testicular cancer patient has a mass in the retroperitoneum, a metastasis is often the first suspicion, probably leading to improper diagnosis and overtreatment. Here we report a case of retroperitoneal schwannoma mimicking metastatic seminoma. A 29-year-old man, who had a history of seminoma, presented with a single retroperitoneal mass suspected to be a metastasis. Because the patient re...
