Abstract:
Leydig cell tumor of testis is relatively rare, comprising only 1 to 3 percent of all testicular tumors. A 10-year-old boy was admitted to our hospital with right testicular mass and sexual precocity. On physical examination, testicular mass was hard and egg-sized. Under the impression of testicular tumor, inguinal orchiectomy was performed. We report this case with literature review.
