[Testicular seminoma in a patient with Kartagener's syndrome].

OBJECTIVE

To present the association between Seminoma and Kartagener's Syndrome (KS), and its relation with infertility.

METHODS

We report one case of Seminoma in a patient with Kartagener's Syndrome, focussing on the possible relation between both pathologies and fertility. Bibliographic references are discussed.

RESULTS

Orchyectomy was performed on a patient with Kartagener's Syndrome and testicular tumour. The pathology result was Seminoma. Azoospermia was obtained twice in the post operative espermiogram, not being easy to establish the implication of each pathology (KS or Seminoma) in infertility.

CONCLUSIONS

A patient with KS and Seminoma plus azoospermia is reported, with a great outcome from the oncological point of view. Bibliographic references are described. The association between KS and Seminoma is exceptional in the literature.
