“…10,11 The incidence of seminoma in our study was lower than the studies of Patel MB, Reddy H and Gupta A, but similar to the study by Deore KS. 5,10,11,12 The incidence of embryonal carcinoma in our study was 15.38% which is similar to the findings by Gupta A and it is higher than Reddy H (Table 6). 11,10 Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma is an uncommon disease.…”

Background: Testis is affected by both neoplastic and non neoplastic conditions. Non neoplastic lesions of the testis include epididymo-orchitis, testicular atrophy, undescended testis, testicular abscess etc. Testicular tumors are relatively rare. They constitute the 4th most common cause of death from neoplasia in the young males. This study was undertaken to study the histopathological spectrum, age wise distribution and clinical symptoms of testicular lesions.Methods: This is a retrospective study of three years conducted in the department of pathology, Aurangabad from June 2015 to May 2018. It included all the orchidectomy specimens received from the department of surgery and excluded the orchidectomy specimens sent for infertility and prostatic carcinoma. A detail clinical history was taken. Histopathological examination was done after routine processing and staining with H and E. The data collected was tabulated, analysed and compared to other similar studies.Results: We studied 70 cases. Non neoplastic testicular lesions were 57 and 13 were neoplastic. Non neoplastic testicular lesions were more common than the neoplastic ones. Non neoplastic testicular lesions presented most commonly in the 2nd decade. Most common non neoplastic lesion was epididymo-orchitis followed by torsion, atrophy and testicular abscess. Most common neoplasm was malignant mixed germ cell tumor. Most of the patients of neoplasms presented in the 3rd decade. The most common complaint was testicular swelling and pain.Conclusions: Majority of testicular lesions are non neoplastic. Neoplastic lesions are rare. Non neoplastic lesions mimic neoplastic ones clinically, as testicular swelling is the most common complaint. So histopathological diagnosis is necessary for an accurate diagnosis of testicular lesions.

“…Teratoma and mixed tumors were found to occur in 7.82% of cases each. Similar observations were made by Naqvi et al [13] and Chandanwale et al [12] The incidence of seminoma in this study was comparable to the studies done by Naqvi et al [13] and Chandanwale et al [12] Deore et al [18] observed lower incidence than this study. Incidence of embryonal cell carcinoma in this study was 13.9%, a similar observation made by Chandanwale et al [12] while Naqvi et al [13] showed a higher incidence than this study.…”

“…Teratocarcinoma encountered 12.1% incidence in this study, which is comparable to the studies done by Naqvi et al [13] and Karki and Bhatta. [19] Yolk sac tumor accounted for 5.22% of this study, which was comparable to the figures 5.8% and 6.8% given by Deore et al [18] and Naqvi et al [13] Most of the cases were seen in first decade. The incidence of other mixed germ cell tumors, that is, embryonal carcinoma and seminoma and Teratoma and seminoma was 4.3% and 3.4%, respectively which is comparable to the study done by Naqvi et al [13] while higher incidence was observed by Chandanwale et al [12] The incidence of nonHodgkin's lymphoma in this study was 5.22%.…”

“…In our study, non neoplastic lesions of testis were more common than neoplastic lesions (90.1% vs. 9.8%) which are correlating with other Indian studies as shown in Table 3. 5,[9][10][11] We found undescended testis (46.1%) as the most common non neoplastic lesion. However, none of the cases showed malignancy.…”

Clinico-pathological spectrum of testicular and paratesticular lesions: a retrospective study

et al. 2018

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background: Both neoplastic and non neoplastic conditions affect the testis. Although non neoplastic testicular lesions are more common, still most of the studies were done on testicular neoplasms only. Hence the present study was undertaken to study histopathological spectrum of testicular and paratesticular lesions, their age distribution and clinical presentation.Methods: This is a retrospective study of 77 cases of orchidectomy specimens, testicular biopsies and paratesticular lesions received in the department from Jan 2015 to June 2018.Results: Non neoplastic testicular lesions were more common than neoplastic (90.1% Vs 9.8%) with majority in the second and third decade. Undescended testis comprised 46.1% of the total orchidectomy specimens followed by Torsion/Infarction testis (15.3%). None of the undescended testis showed tumour unlike western countries. Majority of patients presented with empty scrotum (31.16%) and testicular/scrotal swelling (18.11%). Only 5 cases of testicular neoplasm were diagnosed during the study period amounting to only 1.42 cases per year. All were germ cell tumours (4 classic seminoma and 1 yolk sac tumour).Conclusions: Non neoplastic testicular lesions were more common than neoplastic lesions. Complete neonatal examination for testicular descent should be mandatory to avoid late presentations and future malignancies. Germ cell tumours formed the bulk of testicular tumours.
