Abstract :

[en] We report the case of a patient with a symptomatic retroperitoneal tumor. The patient had undergone, 15 years earlier, an orchiectomy and three cycles of chemotherapy for a testicular mixed germ cell tumor. Histology after radical surgical excision revealed a metastasis of mature teratoma. The 183 month interval between initial treatment and relapse is one of the longest ever reported.
