Testicular tumours are a group of heterogenous neoplasms seen commonly in men between the ages of 15 and 35 years. The two main types are seminoma and non-seminomatous germ cell tumour (NSGCT). Testicular cancers are highly treatable and usually curable, even if they present at an advanced stage of the disease with a five-year survival rate of over 95 percent. The symptoms at initial presentation can vary depending on the metastasis, but a nodule or painless swelling of testicle is usually noted. In this case report we will study how a patient with metastatic testicular tumour presents with symptoms indicative of gastrointestinal infection of acute nature with no associated features. We will review current literature on testicular cancers, reasons for delay in treatment and its impact on patient care.

Mixed germ cell tumours of testis represent a comparatively rare category of testicular tumour where different types of both seminomatous and non-seminomatous tumours can be present in varied proportions. We report two cases of mixed germ cell tumours, one consisting of seminoma, embryonal carcinoma and post-pubertal teratoma in the testis of a 22-year-old male and second consisting of a yolk sac tumour and immature teratoma in the testis of a 19-year-old male. We report theses case due to the rare combination and for documentation
