Abstract |
The diagnosis of Sertoli cell tumors is sometimes difficult and can be improved using anti inhibin immunohistochemistry. It is also difficult to establish the prognostic of Sertoli cell tumors. In our observation a high Mib 1 rate (20%) could have be taken in account to decide a better survey or/and a lymphadenectomy, which could have avoided lymph node metastasis in our patient, which was discovered ten years after orchidectomy.
