    Author: Sarma DP, Weilbaecher TG, Hatem AA.
    Journal: J Surg Oncol; 1986 Jan; 31(1):44-7. PubMed ID: 2868159.
    Abstract:
    A 48-year-old man with a clinical diagnosis of acute appendicitis on exploration was found to have a seminoma in an undescended pelvic testis. The tumor had directly invaded the retrocecal appendix, causing acute appendicitis. Such a highly unusual occurrence has not been described in the English literature.
