AB  - A 26-year-old man presented with a painless mass in the right scrotum. Physical 
      examination revealed another smaller mass in the left testis. The patient 
      underwent right radical orchiectomy and enucleation of the tumor in the left 
      testis, followed by radiotherapy for right iliac and para-aortic lymph nodes up 
      to a total dose of 30 Gy. Histology proved typical seminoma of the right testis 
      and mature teratoma in the left testis. Imaging study including abdominal CT and 
      chest X-ray and prompt lowering of beta-HCG level within the normal limit after 
      surgery confirmed the diagnosis of stage I disease. Human leukocyte antigen 
      (HLA)-A24 was identified in this case, suggesting its potential association with 
      bilateral testicular tumor. He is now leading an uneventful life without 
      recurrence of the disease at 30 months after surgery.
