Abstract
Very few cases of malignant Sertoli cell tumour of the testis are reported in the literature. The average age at discovery of this tumour is 39 years. Malignant Sertoli cell tumour of the testis in a child is presented, the fourth case reported in the literature. We present our case to increase awareness of this tumour in this age group, to point out the capability of Sertoli cell tumours to metastasize, and to document the remarkable initial response to combination chemotherapy, a hitherto unreported feature.Keywords
