Abstract:
A testis tumor is comparatively rare and most of them are discovered as a palpable asymptomatic mass. We recently experienced two cases of incidental testicular tumor during scrotal exploration for trauma. Pathologic study revealed a mixed germ cell tumor and mature teratoma, so we report here on these two cases with a review of the related literatures.
