Descriptor English: Sertoli-Leydig Cell Tumor
Descriptor Spanish: Tumor de Células de Sertoli-Leydig
Descriptor tumor de células de Sertoli-Leydig
Entry term(s) androblastoma
arrenoblastoma
Scope note: Tumor de los cordones sexuales del estroma gonadal constituido por CÉLULAS DE SERTOLI, CÉLULAS DE LEYDIG y FIBROBLASTOS en variables proporciones y grado de diferenciación. La mayoría de estos tumores producen ANDRÓGENOS en las células de Leydig y fueron denominados previamente androblastoma y arrenoblastoma. Los androblastomas pueden localizarse en el TESTÍCULO o en el OVARIO y dan lugar a masculinización precoz en los varones y virilización en las mujeres (VIRILISMO). En algunos casos las células de Sertoli producen ESTRÓGENOS.

Scope note: A sex cord-gonadal stromal tumor consists of LEYDIG CELLS; SERTOLI CELLS; and FIBROBLASTS in varying proportions and degree of differentiation. Most such tumors produce ANDROGENS in the Leydig cells, formerly known as androblastoma or arrhenoblastoma. Androblastomas occur in the TESTIS or the OVARY causing precocious masculinization in the males, and defeminization, or virilization (VIRILISM) in the females. In some cases, the Sertoli cells produce ESTROGENS.
