Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment outcomes of testieulax endodermal sinus tumor. Methods Twenty-four cases diagnosed with testieular endodermal sinus tumors from November 1996 to April 2007 were retruspeetively reviewed. Eighteen patients presented with stage Ⅰ disease, 4 presented with stage Ⅰ , and 2 presented with stage Ⅲ. Inguinal radical or-chieetomy were performed in all patients. Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection was performed in 8 ea-ses. Results The histological structures were rather complicated in 24 tumors. Twenty-three eases (96%) were found with reticular pattern, 22(92%) with hyaline body, 20(83%) with glandlike structure, 16(67%) with Shiller-Dural body, and 13(54%) with solid formation. The former 3 kinds were regarded as the main diagnostic criteria. Twenty-one eases were followed up for 20 months to 12 years. During the follow-up, 2 patients died of the disease. Condesions Early diagnosis and combi-nation therapy, including radical orehieetomy and chemotherapy, are the keys to improve the curative effect of testieular endodermal sinus tumors.
