It is a well established fact that cryptorchid testis are at a greater risk of malignant transformation than a normal testis. A maldecended testis is seven to ten times more likely to develop a testicular tumor than the general populations1. Seminoma has been reported to be the commonest germ cell tumour that develops in an undescended testis. Three types of seminoma have been described, classic or typical, anaplastic and spermatocytic. Anaplastic seminoma is a rare subtype of seminoma, it accounts for 5% to 7% of all seminomas2.we report a case of bilateral anaplastic seminoma in a cryptorchid male.Downloads
