A large retroperitoneal seminoma in a 42-year-old man is described, which appears to have arisen as a primary tumor at that site. The mechanism for the development of extragonadal germ cell tumors is discussed, and the criteria for their distinction from metastatic occult or regressed testicular neoplasms are re-emphasized. Awareness by clinicians of this entity may save individuals with this neoplasm from unnecessary orchiectomy.
本文描述了一名42岁男性的巨大腹膜后精原细胞瘤,该肿瘤似乎原发于该部位。文中讨论了性腺外生殖细胞肿瘤的发生机制,并再次强调了将其与隐匿性或消退性睾丸转移瘤相鉴别的标准。临床医生对该实体的认识可使患有这种肿瘤的患者避免不必要的睾丸切除术。
