A case of jejunal intussusception with gastrointestinal bleeding caused by metastatic testicular germ cell cancer.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND/AIM:We report an unusual case of metastatic testicular germ cell tumor with its unusual presentation. METHOD:A patient presented to the San Joaquin General Hospital with gastrointestinal bleeding and obstruction and a testicular mass is described. The patient's clinical course is followed and the literature reviewed. RESULTS:The patient presented with jejunal intussusception due to metastatic testicular cancer. He was treated with orchiectomy and bowel resection followed by postoperative chemotherapy. CONCLUSION:This case illustrates the need to consider metastatic small-bowel obstruction and/or intussusception in patients presenting with testicular mass and abdominal pain.
