Abstract
Spermatocytic Seminoma is a rare testicular tumor which has dictinct clinical presentation, histological and
immunochemical features than classical seminoma and also has good prognosis. It represents 1-4% of all seminomas.
The differential diagnosis on microscopy includes classical seminoma, lymphoma and embryonal carcinoma.
Orchidctomy is the only treatment required. Radiotherapy and preventive chemotherapy are not indicated. We present a
case of spermatocytic seminomain 52-year-old male patient to highlight its clinical presentation and to distinguish this
tumor from classical seminoma.
