[Epididymal adenomatoid tumors. 2 new cases].

OBJECTIVE: To review the different aspects of epididymal tumors, with special reference to adenomatoid tumor of the epididymis (mesothelial neoplasm). Two such cases are reported herein. METHODS: Two cases of adenomatoid tumor of the epididymis are described. The clinical features, diagnosis and treatment are discussed, within the context of the algorithm recently presented by Pellicé and co-workers. RESULTS/CONCLUSION: Most of the epididymal tumors are benign and treatment using a scrotal approach will suffice. However, inguinotomy should be performed when the benign nature of the tumor cannot be established unequivocally.

[Morphological study of the trigonal epithelium in male hyperestrogenism].

The histological changes caused by endocrinological action on the female epithelium are known and well-documented. These have been described in the bladder and attention has been focussed to the anatomo-clinical implications. A review of the literature with special reference to organogenetic, clinical and hormonal aspects prompted us to consider the cervico-trigonal epithelium as being particularly interesting in determining the histological changes arising from endocrine action. With hormonal influence as our working hypothesis, a morphological study of the trigonal epithelium was conducted in males with hyperestrogenism. Light and scanning electron microscopy revealed the presence of new glandular-like structures resembling the female endometrium with clearly evident metaplastic etiology and dynamics mediated by hormonal action.

[Tumors of the gonadal stroma. Report on a Sertoli cell tumor].

OBJECTIVES: A rare case of Sertoli cell tumor of the testis is described. The problems associated with this tumor type and the importance of the differential diagnosis are discussed. METHODS/RESULTS: The clinical features of a patient with Sertoli cell tumor in a cryptorchid testis are presented. CONCLUSIONS: It is recognized that there is a higher incidence of tumors in undescended testis and among these are Sertoli cell tumors.
