A 10 and 4 year old mongrel and spitz dog were presented with inappetance and gradually enlarged testicle on parapenile region. The dogs were cryptochid. A paramedian incision was made on testicle in mongrel dog and left paramedian incision was made directly on swelling for spitz dog and testicles were exposed, spermatic cord was ligated. The contra lateral testicle was removed through scrotal incision and scrotum was ablated to prevent further swelling post operation. Biopsy of testicle and fine aspiration results confirmed diffuse seminoma. Both dogs had an uneventful recovery.
