title: [Report of 2 cases extragonadal germ cell neoplasia with primary burnt out tumor of the testis].
abstract: If the histogenesis of the extragonadal germ cell tumor is a still debatable subject, its clinical diagnosis remains a question of no immediate solution. In fact, only the keen histologic evaluation of microfocuses and/or scar tissue in the testis, possibly on the guide of US finding, could give the answer about the primitiveness or not of the extragonadal neoplasia. Which implies, of course, some problems of compliance on the part of young locally symptomless men, especially on the ground of possibly bilateral involvement.
