Rare complication of chemotherapy in testicular cancer

Abstract

Testicular neoplasms metastasizing to the retroperitoneum rarely involve the upper gastrointestinal tract. We describe an unusual case of contained small bowel perforation as a complication of chemotherapy treatment of metastatic non seminomatous germ cell cancer in a 32-year-old man.
