A thirty-year-old fertile man with a history of right-sided cryptorchidism presented to the surgical outpatient department with a right iliac fossa mass of two months duration. On computed tomography scan of the abdomen, diagnosis of malignant testicular mass with right ectopic kidney and eventration of right hemidiaphragm was made. Exploratory laparotomy with surgical resection of mass was done, which was histopathologically diagnosed as seminoma of the right testis. The unique developmental anomalies and associated seminoma made us report this case. These developmental anomalies may be a possible sequence of events or merely a coincidental combination. |
