ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics of large cell calcifying Sertoli cell tumor (LCCSCT) of the testis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>We studied a case of LCCSCT by light microscopy, Western blotting and immunohistochemistry, reviewed relevant literature, and analyzed the clinical, morphological and immunohistochemical features, treatment and prognosis of the tumor.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The patient was a 25 years old man. Pathohistologically, the tumor was characterized by a mass of polygonal tumor cells in a tubular and trabecular growth pattern, with abundant acidophilic cytoplasm, enlarged vesicular nuclei, and extensive calcified debris in stroma. The tumor cells were positive for inhibin, S-100, vimentin and alcian blue, but negative for PLAP, SMA, CK, AFP and periodic acid-Schiff (PAS) reaction.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>LCCSCT is a rare testicular sex cord stromal tumor. Its diagnosis is based on immunohistochemical staining, and it is to be differentiated from other lesions of the testis, including seminoma, Leydig cell tumor, Sertoli cell node, and androgen insensitivity syndrome. For the treatment of LCCSCT, surgical resection often has a good prognosis.</p>
