title: Mixed testicular tumor in immunosuppressed patient: case report.
abstract: A 30-year-old man who was maintained on immunosuppressants following renal transplantation had seminoma with teratoma of the right testis 3 months postoperatively. The temporal relationship in the development of the tumor in the presence of immunosuppressants strongly suggests the importance of the immunodefense mechanism in the control, development or growth of the neoplasm.
