Metastatic embyronal carcinoma to the subcutaneous tissues is rare. Prior cases have occurred in the setting of undiagnosed widely metastatic disease. Here we present the first case of metastatic embyronal cancer to the contralateral subcutaneous inguinal region in the absence of any other sites of metastatic disease. Key words: Testicular cancer, Embyronal carcinoma, Nonseminomatous germ cell tumor, Metastatic disease
