A rare large-cell calcifying Sertoli cell tumor was identified in a young man, presenting unique features and low malignant potential. Early recognition is crucial for evaluating associated endocrine and cardiac conditions.

Area of Science:

  • Urology
  • Oncology
  • Endocrinology

Background:

  • Sertoli cell tumors are rare testicular neoplasms.
  • Large-cell calcifying Sertoli cell tumors (LCCST) are an uncommon subtype with distinct characteristics.
  • This subtype has only recently been described in scientific literature.

Observation:

  • A case report of a 20-year-old male presenting with a left testicular mass.
  • Initial clinical suspicion was malignant neoplasm.
  • Pathological examination revealed a large-cell calcifying Sertoli cell tumor.

Findings:

  • LCCST exhibits unique clinical and pathological features.
  • This tumor type demonstrates a low potential for malignancy, with only one documented metastasis.
  • The tumor predominantly affects individuals within the first two decades of life.

Implications:

  • Clinicians should consider LCCST in the differential diagnosis of testicular masses in young men.
  • Awareness of LCCST's low malignant potential is important for patient management.
  • Evaluation for associated endocrine disorders and cardiac myxoma is recommended in patients diagnosed with LCCST.
