Testicular Cystic Walthard Cell Nest in a 7-Month-Old.
Walthard cell nests have previously been reported arising from paratesticular structures; however, this is the first reported case of an intratesticular Walthard cell nest. We report our experience with this lesion which is interesting not only because of its extreme rarity but also because of the proposed histogenesis of such lesions.
