Patient with a history of testicular tumor surgery, with a Yolk sac tumor biopsy and with a diagnosis of an unresectable retroperitoneal metastatic tumor. One year after this last diagnosis, he was referred to us, with a considerable increase in this lesion and his excision was successfully achieved. A review of the literature, indications and techniques for the treatment of retroperitoneal metastasis from a Yolk sac tumor was performed, and the results of a patient diagnosed and operated on at the "Hermanos Ameijeiras" Clinical Surgical Hospital, in the year 2016. Retroperitoneal metastatic spread of Yolk sac tumor is infrequent, very little reported worldwide and with few experiences in its treatment. A giant lesion resection technique was performed with postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy. There were no complications related to the procedure.
