Abstract

Wunderlich’s syndrome in a young man of testicular mixed germ cell tumor with choriocarcinoma syndrome

Highlights

Wunderlich’s syndrome is a rare but potentially life-threatening entity of spontaneous renal hemorrhage into the formation of perirenal and/or sub capsular hematoma, mostly due to vasculitis and renal tumors, such as renal angiomyolipoma, which is a benign mesenchymal tumor and is the most frequent cause [1,2,3,4]
We report a young man who was found to have Wunderlich’s syndrome, which was associated with metastasis of testicular tumor
Wunderlich’s syndrome was very rare to be associated with metastasis from testicular choriocarcinoma, together with metastatic brain germ cell tumor bleeding, characterizing components of choriocarcinoma syndrome in our case
