Adult granulosa cell tumour of the testis: an uncommon tumour

A male patient in his late 20s was admitted to the hospital after presenting with left abdominal, back and scrotal pain that had begun approximately 2 weeks earlier. He had a history of a stable left testicular mass for 3 years, and a physical exam revealed a non-tender, firm left testicular mass and a mild left varicocele. Testicular tumour markers were normal, but a scrotal ultrasound revealed a 2 cm hypoechoic left testicular lesion. Staging imaging showed no retroperitoneal adenopathy or pulmonary metastases. The patient underwent left radical inguinal orchiectomy with no evidence of extratesticular or spermatic cord involvement. His surgical pathology revealed a left pT1a 2.3 cm adult granulosa cell tumour of the testis with no lymphovascular invasion. The tumour was positive for inhibin and negative for OCT3/4, supporting the diagnosis.
