Occult primary seminoma: eighteen-year delay in presentation.
Primary retroperitoneal seminoma is well documented. A case is reported in which a patient presented with a seminoma of testis eighteen years after removal of a retroperitoneal seminoma. Histologic appearance of the testis was identified to the original pathology, and it is proposed that this represents recurrence of an occult testicular seminoma.
