Abstract
A review of all testicular tumours examined in the Department of Pathology, University of Natal, over the past 25 years has revealed a very low incidence in the Black population. In comparison with White and Indian patients, testicular teratomas are particularly uncommon, a surprising feature in view of the frequency of ovarian teratomas in Blacks.
