Abstract

The difficulties encountered in establishing a diagnosis of a malignant peritoneal mesothelioma are emphasized in a patient who developed the lesion 16 years after radiation therapy for a seminoma of the testis. Historically, histologically, electron microscopically, and by microincineration, there was no evidence of asbestos exposure. We believe that present lesion may be a consequence of prior radiation therapy.
