Sertoli cell tumour of the testis.
Sertoli cell tumors (TCS) derivated from sex-cord estroma cells, are an uncommon variety of testicles neoplasms. A 66 year-old patient that came to the consultation for an increased scrotum of size present. Ultrasound viewed a hipoecoic nodule capable with testicular tumor, more secondary hidrocele.

متن کاملSclerosing Sertoli Cell Tumor of the Testis: Case Report and Review of the Literature
Sertoli cell tumors of the testis are extremely rare tumors with a heterogeneous pathology. Three histological variants have been described: Sertoli cell tumor not otherwise specified (NOS), large cell calcifying sertoli cell tumor and the Sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor. The sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor described herein is associated with prominent stromal sclerosis. They present as painless...
متن کاملLarge-cell calcifying Sertoli cell tumor of the testis.
Ten cases of a distinctive testicular neoplasm characterized by large cells with abundant eosinophilic cytoplasm and calcification are reported together with two similar cases from the literature. A Sertoli cell origin of these tumors was established by their architectural and cytologic characteristics, as well as their frequent growth within seminiferous tubules. A high association was found w...

متن کاملFactors affecting Sertoli cell function in the testis.
The Sertoli cell is the primary target for FSH action in the mammalian testis. These cells contain the majority of testicular plasma membrane receptors for this hormone. Receptor occupancy is directly correlated with a stimulation of adenylyl cyclase and a decrease in the activity of a cytoplasmic Ca++-sensitive cAMP phosphodiesterase. Regulation of these two enzymes allows increased intracellu...
