Germ cell testicular tumor with best prognosis, spermatocytic seminoma: a rare case report
Journal Title: Journal of Health Sciences and Medicine - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 4
Abstract
Spermatocytic seminoma is relatively uncommon and accounts for only 1–2% of all seminomas. It has specific pathological and clinical properties when compared with classical seminoma. Identification of spermatocytic seminoma is difficult especially in elderly cases, due to its rare occurrence, lack of clinical presentation, and the difficulty of differential diagnosis with morphologically classical seminoma and testicular lymphoma. Here we presented the clinical presentation, histopathologic and prognostic features of a spermatocytic seminoma case in the light of literature information.
