Abstract
A case of sclerosing Sertoli cell tumor of the testis is reported. The histological and clinical features are compared to those of other Sertoli cell tumor subtypes. The current urological and pathological literature was reviewed. The tumor was identified incidentally in a 35-year-old white man. Pathological examination was performed and the patient was well at 9 months. Sertoli cell tumors are heterogeneous and not accurately considered a uniform entity. The currently recognized variants differ in apparent malignant potential as well as the association with disease processes in other unrelated organ systems.
