Large cell calcifying Sertoli cell tumors (LCCSCTs) are extremely rare, with less than 100 tumors being described to date. Most of the tumors are benign with a few malignant cases, and aggressive behavior is infrequent. These tumors are a type of Sertoli cell tumor, and these tumors comprise less than 0.3% of all testis tumors in Saudi Arabia. They usually occur in boys and young adults and can affect one or both testicles in multifocal form causing microcalcifications. A 28-year-old male visited our hospital with left testis pain. Physical examination of the scrotum revealed that both testicles were normal sized with no palpable mass. Ultrasonography evaluation revealed grade 3 left varicocele and an incidental 9 mm calcified mass in the right testicle, which was further confirmed by MRI. Partial orchiectomy was performed. Clinical data, radiological studies, and morphological and immunohistochemical characteristics were analyzed.
大细胞钙化性支持细胞瘤(LCCSCTs)极为罕见,迄今为止报道的病例不足100例。大多数肿瘤为良性,少数为恶性,侵袭性行为并不常见。这些肿瘤属于支持细胞瘤类型,在沙特阿拉伯,它们占所有睾丸肿瘤的比例不到0.3%。它们通常发生于男孩和年轻成年人,可呈多灶性累及一侧或双侧睾丸,导致微钙化。一名28岁男性因左侧睾丸疼痛前来我院就诊。阴囊体格检查显示双侧睾丸大小正常,未触及肿块。超声检查发现左侧3级精索静脉曲张,右侧睾丸意外发现一个9毫米的钙化肿块,MRI进一步证实了这一情况。遂行睾丸部分切除术。对临床资料、影像学研究以及形态学和免疫组化特征进行了分析。
