title: [Testicular sertolioma].
abstract: Sertolioma accounts for 4.5% of all non-herminogenic testicular tumors. Sertolioma presents clinically with local symptoms (enlarged testis) which may be associated with dyshormonal symptoms. Most sertoliomas are benign, only 16.7% of them are malignant. Metastatic process is primarily lymphogenic and involves first retroperitoneal lymph nodes. Accurate histological criteria of malignancy for sertolioma have not been determined yet. The treatment should be started with orchofuniculectomy. Organ-saving operations may be performed in metastases-free children with bilateral sertoliomas. Surgical treatment is the only treatment effective in malignant sertolioma. Retroperitoneal and (or) solitary distant metastases should be removed surgically. Sertolioma is resistant to chemotherapy and is low sensitive to radiotherapy. Contrary to benign sertolioma, malignant one has poor prognosis.
