Seminoma Arising from Intra-abdominal Cryptorchidism with Ipsilateral Renal Agenesis: A Rare Association.

Unilateral renal agenesis is usually asymptomatic and may be found incidentally during examination for other causes. The incidence of testicular tumors arising from cryptorchidism is well established, but if it is coexistent with ipsilateral renal agenesis, the diagnosis and management becomes a challenge. Only three cases of such association have been reported in literature so far. This association has to be kept in mind when dealing with a case of testicular tumor arising from abdominal cryptorchidism, so that the function of the other kidney can be assessed before surgery, and protection given to it in the event of using radiotherapy in an adjuvant setting.
