“…On the other hand, we did not highlight any acute haemorrhagic episode but rather an iron deficiency with chronic haemorrhagic suffusion. The literature shows that patients presenting with bowel metastasis of an embryonic cancer develop, in most cases, a haemorrhagic symptom (14 out 15 patients in the study by Fu et al[ 6 ]) or a digestive occlusion[ 6 , 7 ]. Tumoural dissemination by contiguity is the most frequently identified tumoural expansion mode at the expense of haematogenic or lymphatic pathways[ 6 ].…”

We report here the case of a young man suffering from a rare germ cell tumour. The patient was a 25-year-old man who was referred to our centre for asthenia, stinging epigastric pain, and an iron deficiency anaemia. Gastroscopy revealed a circumferential vegetating lesion on the second portion of the duodenum. The lesion was indurated at the third portion of the duodenum, responsible for a tight stenosis. A computerized tomography-scan of the chest, abdomen and pelvis, and a pancreatic MRI showed a circumferential lesion with a bi-ductal dilatation (i.e., of the common bile duct and Wirsung’s duct) without metastatic localisation. The patient underwent a pancreaticoduodenectomy with lymph node dissection including all cellular adipose tissues of the hepatic pedicle from the hepatic common artery and of the retroportal lamina. Histological findings were suggestive of a duodenal embryonal carcinoma with pancreatic infiltration. This is the second published case highlighting the duodenal primitive localisation of an embryonal carcinoma with pancreatic infiltration.

Undescended testes (UDT) are a common birth anomaly. About 80% of UDT are palpable and 20% are non palpable.1 Palpable UDT are located along the inguinoscrotal descent route. The term non –palpable means that the testis was not found during the patient's examination. In that case we deal with an abdominal testis or with lack of testis. Intraabdominal testes are associated with an increased risk of malignancy. We herein present a recent case in our institution of intraabdominal testis which was histopathologically conrmed as Mixed Germ Cell Tumour (GCT) with a combination of seminoma, yolk sac tumor and embryonal carcinoma components with inltration into the peritoneal cavity.
