Two cases of testicular tumors with lymph node involvement and multiple lung and liver metastases were treated successfully with intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy. Case 1: A 30-year-old man presented with right scrotal swelling and an abdominal mass. He had a large retroperitoneal mass and multiple lung and liver metastases on computed tomographic (CT) scan and chest X-ray. Right inguinal orchiectomy was performed. Histopathological diagnosis revealed embryonal cell carcinoma and choriocarcinoma. Cisplatin, vinblastine, VP-16 and pepleomycin combination chemotherapy (PVeBV) was started and repeated for 2 courses. The retroperitoneal mass and lung tumors decreased in size, but liver tumors enlarged. Systemic and intrahepatic arterial infusion combined with chemotherapy was administered, and intra-arterial chemotherapy (cisplatin, VP-16) was added. The patient also received systemic chemotherapy (carboplatin, VP-16, ifosfamide). After chemotherapy, retroperitoneal lymph node dissection was performed. Microscopic examination revealed no viable cancer cells. On CT scan, no retroperitoneal, liver, or lung tumor was detected. Case 2: A 43-year-old man presented with right scrotal swelling and an abdominal mass. CT scan revealed a large retroperitoneal mass as well as lung and multiple liver metastases. Right inguinal orchiectomy was performed. Histopathological diagnosis revealed seminoma. Cisplatin, vinblastine, VP-16 and pepleomycin combination chemotherapy (PVeBV) was administered, but the liver tumors ware enlarged on CT scan. Intrahepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (cisplatin, VP-16) was started and repeated for 4 courses. On CT scan, the lung metastasis seemed to have disappeared, and the retroperitoneal mass and liver metastases were decreased in size.
