Abstract
We report a case of sperm cell seminoma caused by trauma. The data in the literature indicate the frequency is less than 5% of all seminomas. This case was exclusively located in the gonads and was a pure form. Orchidectomy with high ligature of the cord and adjuvant radiotherapy at the dose of 25 Gy centered on the para-aortic and subdiaphragmatic chains is adequate treatment. When inguinoscrotal surgery is performed, this zone must be irradiated with 25 Gy. Prognosis is satisfactory: 5-year survival is 100% with this protocol.
