Summary

Description
English: Low micrograph of a Sertoli cell nodule, also Pick's adenoma, testicular tubular adenoma and tubular adenoma of the testis. H&E stain.

These are thought to represent immature testes, which consist of only Sertoli cells, and are associated with cryptorchidism. They are not composed of a clonal cell population, i.e. neoplastic; thus, technically, they should not be called an adenoma.

Characteristics:

  • Unencapsulated nodule of consisting of:
    • Cells arranged in well-formed tubules (that vaguely resemble immature Sertoli cells) with:
      • Bland hyperchromatic oval/round nuclei that are stratified, and
      • May contain eosinophilic (hyaline) blob in lumen (centre).
  • High mag.
    High mag.
  • Intermed. mag.
    Intermed. mag.
