RÉSUMÉ
Cryptorchid testis is correlated with high incidence rate of testicular neoplasm. A 44 year-old male was admitted to our hospital due to huge abdominal mass and dyspnea. Physical examination revealed impalpable right testicle in the scrotum. Abdominal CT scan revealed a huge right retroperitoneal mass with central necrosis. AFP and BHCG were increased. 4 courses induction PVB therapy was performed under diagnosis of unresectable bulky stage IIB nonseminomatous germ cell tumor. Thereafter the tumor size and markers were decreased. But the patient was lost for follow-up. One year later, the tumor size and markers were increased Retroperitoneal excision of intraabdominal mass was performed followed by adjuvant PVB therapy due to persistent increased markers.
