Abstract:
Down's syndrome is an inherited disorder caused by trisomy of chromosome 21. In patients with Down's syndrome, an increased risk of leukemia has been observed. Recently, the coincidence of testicular cancer with this syndrome has been also emphasized. We present a case of Down's syndrome associated with testicular seminoma. This is the 19th case of Down's syndrome associated with testicular tumor in Japan.
