A Case of Adult Granulosa Cell Tumour of the Testis Masquerading as Hernia with Hydrocele
Main Article Content
Abstract
Granulosa cell tumours are extremely rare and very few cases of adult type have been reported till date . Granulosa cell tumours can broadly classified into juvenile and adult types. They are known to occur more commonly occurs in females (in ovaries) than in males (in testis) . We here reported here a case of 39 year old man who was diagnosed with testicular adult granulose cell tumour with no metastasis . A High Inguinal radical Orchidectomy was performed with histology demonstrating no invasion of the tunica albuginea , epididymis , spermatic cord and no lymphovascular invasion . The aim of the present report is to document another case of AGCT to summarize the knowledge regarding this rare tumour.
