Abstract:
A 5-month-old-male was brought to our hospital in April 2004 with left scrotal swelling. His serum alpha-fetoprotein AFP and human chorionic gonadotropin-beta levels were 6,862.9 and < 0.1 ng/ml, respectively. Computed tomography (CT) revealed no metastasis. Left high ligation of testis was performed. Pathological examination demonstrated Yolk sac tumor. He is alive without evidence of recurrence for 53 months postoperatively.
