Abstract
A total of 15 gonadal stromal tumors in prepubertal boys has been reported to the Prepubertal Testicular Tumor Registry of the Section on Urology of the American Academy of Pediatrics. Leydig cell tumors invariably are benign and patients usually present with precocious puberty when they are 5 to 9 years old. Other gonadal stromal tumors either present in infancy as a scrotal mass and exhibit a benign behavior or occur later in childhood and may be malignant.Keywords
