title: Testicular tumors in non-twin brothers from a consanguineous marriage.
abstract: Malignant testicular tumors occurring in non-twin brothers are reported. Both of the brothers suffered from amentia and epilepsy and were the product of a consanguineous marriage. One brother presented with teratocarcinoma and the other seminoma. With a review of the literature, genetic roles in the etiology of testicular neoplasia are discussed.
