Abstract
Testicular cancer commonly affects younger men, with testicular germ cell tumours comprising the vast majority of cases. They are classified into either seminomatous or non-seminomatous germ cell tumours, with mixed germ cell tumours treated as non-seminomas.
In the following case report, we describe the clinical course and management of a 38-year-old male patient who presented with a right unilateral testicular mixed germ cell tumour, predominantly seminoma that had metastasized to the adrenal gland. This pattern of spread is indeed a rare occurrence. It also highlights the significance of the current diagnostic and management protocol and the benefits of using positron emission tomography as a diagnostic tool.
