Cryptorchidism, or undescended testis (UDT), is defined as failure of a testis to descend into a scrotal position. We present a case report of 37 year old male with bilateral undescended testis and azoospermia who gave history of surgery at the age of 2 years for repositioning of both the testis into scrotum with failure of the procedure within 1 year of surgery. Clinical examination and imageology revealed both the testis in inguinal region with features of atrophy. Bilateral inguinal orchidectomy was done and histopathology revealed seminoma in both the testis .Postoperative Biomarkers and PET-Scan showed no evidence of metastases
