A case of bilateral seminoma in an aged Mallard duck (Anas platyrhynchos) is described. Both testes were enlarged. Historically, the testes revealed large irregular seminiferous tubules containing diffuse sheets of large round, hyperchromatic neoplastic spermatogenic cells. Mitotic figures were seen. The growth had spread diffusely in both testes with no normal tissue left. Occurrence of bilateral seminoma without metastasis to other organs is unusual.

Article Synopsis
- Carboplatin is an effective and safer alternative to cisplatin for treating stage I seminoma, minimizing risks like nephrotoxicity and ototoxicity.
- A case involved a 48-year-old man who experienced hematuria and acute kidney injury after receiving adjuvant carboplatin following surgery for testicular seminoma.
- The acute kidney injury resolved after conservative management and the removal of a blood clot during cystoscopy, with imaging indicating potential ureteral obstruction.

Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to compare clinical and histological differences between testicular tumors (TT) in children and adults by analyzing data from two hospitals over a ten-year span, from 2014 to 2024.
- - A total of 195 patients were analyzed, with 135 children (mean age 2.32 years) and 60 adults (mean age 34.08 years), revealing a higher incidence of TT in younger children and different tumor types predominating in each age group.
- - The most common initial symptom in both children and adults was a painless scrotal mass, and significant differences were found in tumor characteristics based on age, size, and histological type.
Post-pubertal management of undescended testes from the malignancy risk point of view: a systematic review.

Department of Urology, Rumah Sakit Dr Cipto Mangunkusumo, University of Indonesia, Central Jakarta, Jakarta, 10430, Indonesia.
Background: Undescended testes (UDT) is a condition where one or both testes is absent in the scrotum. The general age recommendation in which the treatment should be performed is before 18 months old due to the infertility risk and malignancy in later life. In post-pubertal UDT, the current guideline recommends orchiectomy; however, the strength rating of this recommendation is weak.
