ABSTRACT
Testicular cancer, accounting for 1-1.5% of male malignancies, rarely presents bilaterally, with only 2-3% of cases being bilateral and a mere 10% being synchronous, typically sharing histological patterns in both testes. Discordant histological presentation is exceedingly rare, with only a few reported cases. In this report, we detail a case involving a 35-year-old infertile male with bilateral synchronous testicular tumors, each exhibiting different histopathologies. This case highlights the diagnostic intricacies and the necessity for tailored management in the face of such uncommon presentations. The implications of oncological treatment and fertility preservation significantly affect the patient's overall quality of life.
