Abstract EN
Late relapse of a testicular cancer is an uncommon occurrence.
We report a case of late relapse of a testicular tumour combined with a renal cancer and their successful removal with retroperitoneoscopy.
The 36-year-old patient underwent left orchiectomy, retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, and chemotherapy, because of mixed tumor including teratoma and embryonal carcinoma.
18 years after the successful primary therapy elevated serum alpha-fetoprotein level had been confirmed, then MRI and PET-CT scans demonstrated a 30 mm left renal mass and 22 mm retroperitoneal lymph node above the bifurcation of the left common iliac artery.
We performed retroperitoneoscopic lymph node dissection and left renal tumour resection in the same session.
The histology revealed embryonal carcinoma for the retroperitoneal lymph node and renal cell carcinoma for the left renal mass.
We can conclude that late followup of patients with testicular tumour is important.
Retroperitoneoscopy is feasible approach for the removal of retroperitoneal lymph node metastasis and resection of renal tumor.
