Abstract
The patient was a 29 years old male. He was attended to our hospital with a chief complaint of a right scrotal mass on August 20, 1983. Based on the diagnosis of testicular neoplasm, orchiectomy was performed on September 7, 1983. After surgery, the patients, HCG and alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) values of still remained high.
