Scrotal recurrence of paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma in a previously undescended testicle 5 years after orchiectomy.
A case of scrotal recurrence of a paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma 5 years after orchiectomy and chemotherapy is described. To our knowledge local recurrences have been reported previously only in the inguinal region. The patient had a history of orchiopexy, which may have contributed to the scrotal recurrence.
