Abstract:
The present report concerns the occurrence of bilateral synchronous germ cell tumors in a sixty-eight-year-old man who received estrogen therapy for eleven months. Although there are previous reports on Leydig cell tumors developing in mice and man receiving estrogens, we have not found any connection between germ cell tumors and estrogen medication reported in the literature.
