“…In our cohort, all patients with bone metastases had synchronous other metastases. Only a few case reports have reported on the rare phenomenon of isolated bone metastases in testicular germ cell tumors (Asthana et al 1988;Benedetti et al 2006;Uygun et al 2006).…”

“…So far, only a few case reports and small series with very few patients with bone metastases from germ cell cancer have been published (Aldejmah et al 2007;Arnold et al 2000;Asthana et al 1988;Benedetti et al 2006;Bosco et al 1994;Hitchins et al 1988;Ozan et al 2009;Uygun et al 2006). Systematic data on characteristics, risk factors, and treatment outcome of patients with bone metastases from germ cell cancer are largely lacking.…”

“…In our study, three patients had isolated bone metastases without synchronous nodal/visceral metastases, out of which one was a case of testicular seminoma rarely reported in literature. [4,[12][13][14] Seven patients with bone metastases did not respond to cisplatin-based chemotherapy and were switched to second-and third-line regimens with radiotherapy to local disease sites. In addition to progression in bone metastases, relapse with new-onset lung metastases in three and liver disease in one patient was seen.…”
