چکیده
Sex-cord stromal tumours account for only about 6% of testicular neoplasms.' Leydig cell tumour is the commonest sub-type but other tissues that can be represented in varying amounts and degrees of differentiation include Sertoli, granulosa and theca-lutein elements. Testicular granulosa-cell tumour ofthe adult type is particularly uncommon. This report details a mixed sex-cord stromal tumour of the testis in which the adult granulosa cell component predominates.

A 34-year-old tetraplegic patient with suppurative epididymitis was found on follow-up examination and ultrasonography to have a testicular mass. The radical orchiectomy specimen contained an undifferentiated spindled sex cord-stromal tumor arising in the rete testis. Testicular sex cord-stromal tumors are far less common than germ cell neoplasms and are usually benign. The close relationship b...

Endometrial stromal sarcomas account for 0.25% of all uterine malignancies. These tumours were originally divided into low grade and high grade stromal sarcomas, but the recent World Health Organisation classification (2003) recognises low grade stromal sarcoma and undifferentiated endometrial sarcoma. Low grade sarcomas may exhibit other forms of differentiation, including smooth muscle and se...
