Mixed epithelial-stromal tumours (MESTs) of the seminal vesicle (SV) are a rare neoplasm, with biological behaviour ranging from benign to malignant. Due to their rarity, there are no established guidelines for their treatment. We report a 37-year-old man with a large MEST of the SV which was successfully resected by laparoscopic transperitoneal approach. Amidst the controversy regarding the nomenclature and grading of MESTs in literature, we reclassified the previous reports of MESTs incorporating both the WHO and Reikie grading.
精囊混合性上皮-间质肿瘤(MEST)是一种罕见的肿瘤,其生物学行为从良性到恶性不等。由于其罕见性,目前尚无针对其治疗的既定指南。我们报告了一例 37 岁男性的大型精囊 MEST,通过腹腔镜经腹腔途径成功切除。在文献中关于 MEST 命名和分级的争议中,我们重新分类了之前的 MEST 报告,同时纳入了 WHO 和 Reikie 分级。
