They are looking for the following: Families where more than one member of the family has had testicular cancer OR Families where one person in the family has had testicular cancer and another person in the family was born with an undescended testicle OR Anyone who has had bilateral testicular cancer. In other words, testicular cancer in both testicles, not necessarily at the same time.
