Arare yet distinct testicular germ cell tumor is spermatocytic seminoma which represent less than 1% of testicular cancers. It was first recognized by Masson et.al in 1946. It is between 25 and 40 times less frequent than the typical seminoma. An older presentation age and a decreased propensity to metastasis are the clinical characteristics that set out spermatocytic seminoma from classical seminoma. Spermatocytic seminoma never arises in any location other than the testis that is unrelated to other varieties of germ cell cancers, in contrast to the typical seminoma, which develops in the extragonadal sites as a primary tumor (where it is known as a germinoma) and typically occurs with other forms of germ cell tumor. It has a better prognosis.. The preferred treatment is orchidectomy. Radiotherapy is not required to be given after it. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
