Abstract

Synchronous presentation of seminoma and lymphoma is rare but has important ramifications for the treatment of both malignancies. Without clinical vigilance, this situation may be easily missed, leading to inappropriate management. We describe a patient with synchronous seminoma and Hodgkin's lymphoma and discuss the implication on his treatment.
