ABSTRACT

Introduction: Cryptorchidism is the most common genital anomaly at born in male, associated to infertility and risk factor for testicular cancer. At the moment known 40 cases of seminoma in cryptorchidism abdominal testes have benn publicated arround the world. Case presentation: Male patient of 45 years old, who complains of abdominal pain and righ cryptorchidism, with elevation of B Fraction of Human Gonadotropic Corionic Hormone and Lactic Deshidrogenasa, biopsy for aspiration of fine needle was performed, with histology of seminoma the patient was etapificated IIC and treated with chemotherapic and surgical resection post chemotherapy. Actually the patient be asintomatyc and do not had recurrence at ten months of survilance. Discusion: In the patients with cryptorchidism the risk for testicular cancer was incrementaded at 2 to 8 times and 10 % of the patients with testicular cancer have previous diagnose of cryptorchidism. The malignation of cryptorchidism abdominal testes is until 30% of the cases and more common that inguinal cryptorchidism. Conclusion: Althoug of rare presentation, the chyptorchidism abdominal testes in post-puber patients is indication of orquiectomy in younger than 50 years.
