“…In our group, 3 patients were treated with enucleation of the tumor, through an inguinal approach, and the residual testis was left in situ. Many authors suggest indeed that SCST should be managed with a conservative procedure, with the help of intraoperative frozen section examination [6,12,14,29,30]. If residuals are left, an inguinal orchiectomy is indicated.…”

En la edad adulta, no obstante, puede ser maligno con posibilidad de metástasis 6,12 . Destacar también un único caso de tumor de saco vitelino en un niño de 18 meses en estadio I.…”
