Embryonal carcinoma is a rare and aggressive type of non-seminomatous germ cell tumor that typically affects young to middle-aged individuals. It is often discovered by the patient or during routine medical exams as a painless or occasionally painful lump. Other revealing symptoms, such as lumbar pain or renal colic, are very uncommon in the literature. In this case report, we aim to highlight a case of embryonal carcinoma in a 21-year-old patient, which was discovered following the diagnostic workup of a left lumbar pain episode.
