A sex cord-stromal tumor that arises from the testis and is characterized by the presence of cells that resemble the successive stages of development of Leydig cells. It usually presents as a painless testicular mass. Gynecomastia is present in approximately thirty percent of the cases. Libido may be decreased. In children, precocious puberty may be present. A minority of cases exhibit malignant characteristics.
Biomarker and diagnostic research for testicular Leydig cell tumor has been reported in the published literature.
1 clinical trial registered, 1 recruiting. Interventions under study include drug therapy, procedural interventions, and biologic therapy. Pipeline includes 1 PHASE2. Research is primarily sponsored by academic and government institutions.
75 publications have been identified in PubMed for testicular Leydig cell tumor. Research spans Basic Science / Preclinical (44%), Case Report / Case Series (24%), and Review / Meta-Analysis (13%).
