We present an interesting case of bilateral microlithiasis. Microlithiasis is usually considered a benign condition with no need for follow-up. However, when a patient with testicular microlithiasis has a positive family history of testicular cancer, such patients should be followed up closely to detect the development of testicular cancer.
