Neoplasms involving the testes are uncommon. They account for up to 10% of all malignant diseases affecting the male genitourinary system and for around 2% of all malignant neoplasms in males. Testicular tumors are the third highest cause of mortality in males between the age of 20 and 40 years. We present a case of a young patient with right-sided scrotal swelling associated with pain. Ultrasonography, elastography, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging features revealed non-seminomatous germ cell tumors of the testis. The patient underwent inguinal orchidectomy for the same and was sent for histopathological evaluation. The imaging diagnosis was consistent with the histopathological diagnosis. This case report adds to the knowledge of imaging features of testicular tumors and their identification based on imaging.
