title: Father-son testicular cancer.
abstract: Testicular tumors in closely related family members are rare. We report a case of familial testicular cancer occurring in father-son pairs. The father had teratocarcinoma and his son developed pure seminoma. The association of a genetic factor in the etiology of testicular malignancy is discussed.
