Abstract EN
Pure testicular seminomas occurring in patients with previous intracranial germ cell tumours are extremely rare.
We present such a case.
A 37-year-old gentleman presented to urology after previously being treated for a pineal germinoma with steroids and radiotherapy.
On routine followup, he described symptoms of a testicular seminoma.
This was managed surgically with radical orchidectomy.
We discuss the possible causes of such an association with a review of the literature.
