[Therapeutic considerations on a case of mixed teratoma of the testis with seminomatous component].
The Authors present a case of mixed teratoma of the testis with seminomatous cells, occurred in a teenager. Performed the preoperative oncological staging, the patient was submitted to trans-inguinal left orchifunicolectomy. The presence of cells originated by the three embryonal layers, of stroma distributed in a periepithelial fashion and big cells with clear cytoplasm, permitted to formulate the hystological diagnosis of mixed teratoma, mature and immature, associated with seminomatous cells. The observation of this case offer the opportunity for prognostic and therapeutic considerations.
