Predisposing factors of testicular germ cell tumors are
- Cryptorchidism
- Testicular Feminization Syndrome
- Testicular dysgenesis - Klinefelter syndrome
- Exposure to environmental oestrogens.
- Development of Cancer in one testis is a/w markedly increased risk of neoplasia in the contralateral one.
-Testicular trauma is a coincidence only. This may not precipitate a testicular tumor, but brings to the attention of the patient
