“…Only a few case reports are described. In each case the patient was treated with bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin chemotherapy with complete response seen, as in our case [8, 9]. The likely mechanism for scrotal involvement is felt to relate to disruption of the scrotal membranes and therefore seeding of testicular cancer.…”

“…The likely mechanism for scrotal involvement is felt to relate to disruption of the scrotal membranes and therefore seeding of testicular cancer. In the case we report, this required an external insult which would allow for transmission of cancer cells locally; however, spontaneous scrotal involvement can also occur in case of very extensive tumours [8, 9]. As we have outlined treating the patient with 4 cycles of BEP chemotherapy resulted in a dramatic and sustained response.…”
