Sertoli-Leydig cell tumour, also Sertoli-Leydig tumour, is a rare tumour of the gonad in the sex cord stromal group of tumours.

General

  • Sertoli and leydig cells are normal in the testis.
  • Poorly differentiated tumours have sarcomatous features.[1]

Microscopic

Features:

  1. Sertoli or Leydig cells.[1]
    • Leydig cells:
      • Abundant solid eosinophilic cytoplasm.
      • Round nuclei with fine chromatin and a small or indistinct nucleolus.
      • Often in small clusters ~ 5-25 cells/cluster.
    • Sertoli cells:
      • Pale/clear vacuolated cytoplasm.
      • Irregular nuclei with irregular/vacuolated-appearing chromatin.
      • Architecture: tubules, cords or sheets.
  2. Stroma.
  3. +/- Sarcomatous features (mucinous glands, bone, cartilage).

DDx:

  • Endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary.
  • Luteinized adult granulosa cell tumour - super rare, 50% of cell with eosinophilic cytoplasm, other findings of granulosa cell tumour, e.g. Call-Exner bodies.[2]

IHC

Features:[3]

  • WT-1 +ve.
  • Melan A (MART-1) +ve - marks the Leydig component.
  • Vimentin +ve.[4]
  • Calretinin +ve.
  • CD99 +ve.

Others:[4]

  • CD34 -ve.
  • Cytokeratin -ve (usually).
