Abstract
Further discussion. in 2 previously reported cases of testicular choriocarcinoma, both in 21 year old white men is presented. Each patient had been on 20-30 LSD (lysergic acid diethylamide) trips prior to the onset of the malignant tumor. Both patients had been treated for an acute epididymitis for at least 3 months before the correct diagnosis was entertained and proved by radical orchiectomy. Although a cause and effect relationship cannot as.yet be proved, the possibility of an association between choriocarcinoma of the testes (a malignancy classified as germinal tumor) and the long-term.use of LSD is raised.
