Malignant Sertoli Cell Tumor of Testis / 대한비뇨기과학회지

ABSTRACT

A testicular Sertoli cell tumor is a very rare, usually benign, testicular neoplasm. Of the total number of reported Sertoli cell tumors, only 30 cases were malignant. Usually, these patients have a history of a slowly growing scrotal mass and gynecomastia. These neoplasms vary greatly in size and in their microscopic appearances. A radical inguinal orchiectomy is the initial treatment, with the efficacy of chemotherapy or radiotherapy being controversial. They have an aggressive metastatic behavior and a poor prognosis. Herein, the case of 67-year-old man with a malignant Sertoli cell tumor is reported.
