Abstract

Cryptorchidism is a common risk factor for the testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs). The risk of malignancy in an undescended testis is 10% with the highest risk in an intra-abdominal testis. It usually presents with non-specific symptoms so a complete systemic physical examination should not be neglected in an elderly patient with intra-abdominal mass. We here present a case of an intra-abdominal testicular seminoma in middle aged man as an asymptomatic abdominal mass.
