title: [Neuroectodermal differentiation of embryonal carcinoma of the testis].
abstract: We report here a rare differentiation of an embryonal carcinoma of the testis to a peripheral neurectodermal tumor (PNET) with lymph nodes and lung metastases. In the present case a complete remission was obtained by a PNET oriented chemotherapy combination followed by 2 courses of classical BEP.
