We report the case of a 32-year-old male diagnosed with a left-sided testicular seminoma treated with radical inguinal orchiectomy and staged as pT1bN0M0S0 (rete testis invasion) - stage IA. Adjuvant treatment options were discussed, and active surveillance was chosen. Two years later, he presented with urinary retention alternating with pollakiuria, a feeling of incomplete bladder emptying, dyspareunia, and anejaculation. A rectal examination documented an enlarged, nodular, painful prostate. Blood and urine analyses, including serum tumor markers, were unremarkable. Pelvic magnetic resonance (MR) documented a central, nodular, solid, hypermetabolic, prostatic tumor with a size of 40x50x25 mm, invasion of the right seminal vesicle, right anterolateral wall of the rectum, and postero-inferior bladder wall, and an absent lymph node and visceral disease. A transrectal ultrasound-guided (TRUS) biopsy documented prostatic metastasis of the seminoma. The patient was treated with four cycles of bleomycin, etoposide, and cisplatin (BEP) chemotherapy (ChT) with a complete (clinical, radiologic, metabolic, and pathological) response. After five years of follow-up, he remains asymptomatic without a recurrence of the disease.
