Abstract
We report a case of paravertebral angiosarcoma 10 years after treatment for testicular seminoma. The patient underwent irradiation treatment to areas including the mediastinum. Tumor induction by therapeutic irradiation remains the most likely etiology. Other possibilities include a natural association between seminoma and angiosarcoma, and perhaps the use of chemotherapy.
