By: S. Raviraj and B. Thileebphan
Abstract
Testicular Germ Cell cancers are classified into seminiferous Germ cell Tumors (SGCTs) and Non Seminomatous Germ cell Tumors (NSGCTs). The differentiation of above two entities is an important factor in Therapeutic Strategy and prognostic Index. The retroperitoneal lymphnode (RPLN) is a common site of metastasis in advanced testicular tumors, and large metastases in RPLN lead to ureteral obstruction and resultant hydronephrosis. But it can occur in early stage as happened with our patient.
