Brachial plexus neuropathy from metastatic testicular seminoma. Prolonged survival after surgery and radiation therapy.
Prolonged survival and cure of brachial neuropathy were accomplished following subtotal removal and radiation therapy to metastatic seminoma involving the soft tissues of the right upper arm. Metastasis developed six years after orchiectomy for seminoma, and the patient is free of disease six years after treatment of metastatic disease.
