Development of a malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor following treatment for testicular seminoma

A novel case is reported in which an S2 nerve root malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor was diagnosed approximately 8 years after treatment for Stage I testicular seminoma. This patient underwent right orchiectomy and subsequent irradiation therapy to the periaortic region, including the sacrum. Postoperative radiation therapy likely played a role in the development of this second malignancy.
