Abstract
Teratoma is germ cell tumor which contains tissue elements of all three germ cell layers. Testicular teratoma is subtype of non-seminomatous germ cell tumors. It is divided into two types according to age – Prepubertal and Postpubertal teratoma. Histologically it is divided into mature and immature teratoma. Intratubular germ cell neoplasia in situ (ITGCN) is common feature associated with teratoma. We are presenting case report of 40 yrs old male presenting with painless scrotal mass. On examination left testis was enlarged with firm to hard scrotal mass. Right testis was normal. Patient underwent orchiedectomy and biopsy taken which diagnosed as postpubertal immature teratoma with ITGCN on histology.
