    Study Notes

    Testicular Tumors

    • 30-50% of testicular germ cell tumors are seminomas, also present in mediastinum, pineal gland (germinoma), and retroperitoneum
    • 3 elevations in serum: PLAP (placental alkaline phosphatase), LDH (Lactate dehydrogenase), and hCG (Human chorionic gonadotropin)
    • Overrepresentation of 12p chromosome sequences, probably KRAS, CCND2, and NANOG

    Seminoma Pathologic Findings

    • Homogenous well demarcated gray-white with lobulated and bulging cut surface
    • Uniform tumor cells with clear cytoplasm (glycogen contents)
    • Prominent cell border, large nuclei, and prominent nucleoli
    • PLAP (+), Cytokeratin (-), and AFP (normal)

    Spermatocytic Tumor

    • NOT related to classic seminoma, does NOT arise from intratubular germ cell neoplasia
    • Treatment: Orchiectomy
    • Poor prognostic factor: Sarcomatous components
    • PLAP (-), hCG (-), and AFP (-)
    • Pathologic findings: Pale gray, mucoid, edematous, contains 3 cell types (varying from lymphocyte size to giant cells)

    Choriocarcinoma

    • Cytotrophoblast and Syncytiotrophoblast
    • PLAP (+), Cytokeratin (+), and hCG

    Testicular Anatomy

    • Tunica vaginalis: extension of peritoneal cavity
    • Tunica albuginea: fibrous capsule extending into testis, separates into lobules
    • Tunica vasculosa: Vascular layer
    • Histology of Testes:
      • Spermatogenic cells: initiate spermatogenesis
      • Sertoli cells: Located in seminiferous tubules
      • Leydig cells: In interstitial tissue, endocrine in nature

    Penile and Testicular Tumors

    • Penile Intraepithelial Neoplasia (PeIN): Intraepithelial squamous cell atypia
    • Four variants: Differentiated, Warty, Basaloid, and Warty basaloid
    • Squamous Cell Carcinoma: Most common penile neoplasms, low education, high poverty areas
    • Risk factors: Long inner foreskin, HPV, Lichen sclerosis
    • Types: Bowen's Dz (in situ), Verrucous Carcinoma
