[Leydig cell testicular tumour with an endocrine syndrome. Clinical, biological, ultra-structural and histo-enzymatic study (author's transl)]. 1976

A Suhler, and J Blanchard, and L Benkoel, and J P Ghnassia

With respect to a particularly demonstrative case of Leydig cell tumour with gynaecomastia in a 40 year old man, the authors review the current data in the literature concerning the clinical and biological features and treatment of this tumour. They pay particular attention to the classical anatomo-pathological features, the ultra-structure and the ultrastructural and histo-enzymatic appearances.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007984 Leydig Cell Tumor Gonadal interstitial or stromal cell neoplasm composed of only LEYDIG CELLS. These tumors may produce one or more of the steroid hormones such as ANDROGENS; ESTROGENS; and CORTICOSTEROIDS. Clinical symptoms include testicular swelling, GYNECOMASTIA, sexual precocity in children, or virilization (VIRILISM) in females.

D007985 Leydig Cells Steroid-producing cells in the interstitial tissue of the TESTIS. They are under the regulation of PITUITARY HORMONES; LUTEINIZING HORMONE; or interstitial cell-stimulating hormone. TESTOSTERONE is the major androgen (ANDROGENS) produced.
