Hematol Oncol Stem Cell Ther 1(4) October 2008 hemoncstem.edmgr.com 249 Choroid metastasis from an extraocular primary malignancy is a rare event. Most of these mel tastases are carcinomas arising from the breast and lung.1,2 A mixed germ cell tumor of the testis coml monly metastasizes to lung, but choroid and cutaneous metastasis is rare. We encountered a mixed germ cell tumor of the left testis with a choriocarcinomatous element, presenting with multiple pulmonary, bilateral choroid and isolated skin metastases. This case merits documentation due to its rarity and to further support the evidence of choroid and cutaneous metastasis in mixed germ cell tumor of the testis having a choriocarcinomatous element.
