Pure Sertoli cell tumors are an uncommon variant of rare ovarian Sertoli-Leydig cell tumors. Due to nonspecific clinical and imaging features, diagnosis is often made after histopathological examination. The prognosis is excellent as most are detected in the early stages and surgical resection is often curative in most cases.

Investigation of the morphological and histological features of the testes of pigeon () in pre-puberty and post-puberty.
Open Vet J
September 2024
College of Education for Pure Science Ibn Al Haitham, University of Baghdad, Baghdad, Iraq.
Article Synopsis
- - The study aimed to analyze the testicular morphology and histology of local pigeons at different maturation stages to gain insight into their reproductive health.
- - Results showed that the testis retains an oval shape and exhibits size differences between the left and right sides, with significant histological changes occurring from pre-puberty (smaller with collapsed tubules) to post-puberty (larger, closely packed tubules with mature cells).
- - The findings emphasize the importance of understanding testicular structure changes in pigeons to assess male reproductive system complexity and the role of sex hormones and various cell types in testicular function.
Pure 46, XY gonadal dysgenesis and 46, XY complete androgen insensitivity syndrome: A case report.

Department of Emergency, The First Affiliated Hospital of Jiamusi University, Jiamusi, Heilongjiang, China.
Background: Disorders of sex development (DSD) are congenital conditions characterized by atypical development of chromosomal, gonadal, and phenotypic sex. 46, XY DSD can result from disorders of testicular development or androgen synthesis.
Methods: We present 2 rare cases of 46, XY DSD, specifically XY pure gonadal dysgenesis and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome.
Teratoma-associated and so-called pure Wilms tumour of the ovary represent two separate tumour types with distinct molecular features.

Aims: Ovarian Wilms tumour (WT)/nephroblastoma is an extremely rare neoplasm that has been reported to occur in pure form or as a component of a teratomatous neoplasm. We hypothesized that teratoma-associated and pure ovarian WT may represent different tumour types with diverging molecular backgrounds. To test this hypothesis, we comprehensively characterized a series of five tumours originally diagnosed as ovarian WT.

The rete testis (RT) is a region of the mammalian testis that plays an important role in testicular physiology. The RT epithelium consists of cells sharing some well-known gene markers with supporting Sertoli cells (SCs). However, little is known about the differences in gene expression between these two cell populations.

Article Synopsis
- Sertoli-stromal cell tumors (SSCTs) are a rare type of testicular tumor that combines Sertoli, spindle, and Leydig cells, but their clinical and molecular characteristics have not been thoroughly investigated.
- A study analyzed the morphologic and genomic aspects of 14 SSCTs, identifying a median patient age of 24 years and common structural features like tubular arrangements and nests of Sertoli-like cells.
- Genomic findings revealed mutations such as DICER1 in one tumor and CTNNB1 in others, suggesting most SSCTs mainly show alterations similar to other testicular tumors rather than significant pathogenic mutations.
