title: [A case of paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma with a paraaortic lymph node metastasis].
abstract: A case of paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma in a 22-year-old male is reported. Radiological examination revealed a gross metastatic mass in the paraaortic lymph node. Right high orchiectomy was followed by chemotherapy consisting of cisplatin, vincristine, cyclophosphamide and adriamycin (IRS-III regimen 35). A complete response was seen 4 months after start of therapy. However, recurrent disease developed in the same paraaortic lymph node 25 months postoperatively. The patient died of tumor progression 11 months later.
