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 sc...

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...

introduction: complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (previously called testicular feminization) is specified by a 46 xy karyotype and negative sex chromatin, bilateral undescended testes, female genitalia appearance, and lack of mullerian derivatives. discussion: our medline search revealed that this is the first reported case of bilateral sertoli–leydig cell tumor (slct) in androgen insensi...

the sex cord-like variant of endometrioid carcinoma is a rare subtype with a close histological resemblance to the sex cord-stromal tumor of the ovaries, in particular the sertoli cell tumor. however, very few cases of the granulosa cell tumor-like variant have been reported since it is commonly misdiagnosed as a granulose cell tumor. immunohistochemistry is useful in the diagnosis of these tum...

We Describe a case of ovarian serous cystadenoma having Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor, well differentiated, in the cystic septum. Well differentiated Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor coexisting with other tumor, including serous tumor, has not yet been described. In all cases of Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor with heterologous components or other tumors, the androblastomatous components are intermediately or p...

Sertoli cell tumor, also termed androblastoma or gonadal stromal tumor, is a rare testicular neoplasm. While it is usually benign, 25 cases of malignant Sertoli cell tumors have been reported.'" These neoplasms vary greatly in microscopic appearance and unfortunately they have aggressive metastatic behavior. Despite various treatments, the prognosis remains poor. We report on the fourth prepube...

A 12-year-old female with developmental delay/mental retardation and a family history of gynecologic cancers presented with nonspecific abdominal complaints and was found to have a 4.5-kg, 25- x 23- x 15-cm pelvic mass with solid and cystic components and associated retroperitoneal and mesenteric lymphadenopathy. Laboratory studies revealed increased serum levels of CA-125 and inhibin B. Histol...

To date, only I I cases of sclerosing Sertoli cell tumors have been reported in the literature, representing a distinctive subtype of Sertoli cell tumor in humans. We present a 12th case with a review of the current urological and pathological literature.
