title: Scleromyxedema: possible association with seminoma.
abstract: Although scleromyxedema has been associated with neoplasm in rare instances, the literature showed no evidence of association with seminoma. We report a 43-year-old man who presented with a scleromyxedema and relapsed seminoma. The skin lesions of scleromyxedema cleared completely on treatment of seminoma with chemotherapy.
