Aberrant adrenal tissue near the adrenal gland is common, but the finding of ectopic adrenal tissue in structures around the spermatic cord and testis is rare. We describe a case of concomitant seminoma and ectopic adrenal tissue of the spermatic cord occurring in an adult patient who had undergone orchidopexy as a child.
