    Abstract:
    A case of bilateral germ cell tumor of the testis is reported. In 1988, a 36-year-old male presented with painless swelling of left scrotal contents. Right orchiectomy and retroperitoneal lymph node dissection for embryonal carcinoma had been performed 5 years earlier. Left orchiectomy was performed and its histological finding was seminoma and embryonal carcinoma. Evaluations including CT scan and Ga scintigraphy revealed no metastasis. Postoperatively, the patient was treated with PVB therapy. Previous reports of bilateral germ cell testicular tumor were reviewed, and the age distribution, interval, and histological classification of these cases are discussed.
