小児睾丸腫瘍の3例

Abstract

In general, testicular tumor in infancy and childhood is relatively rare. Three infantile testicular tumors were recently experienced in the boys aged 12 months, 2 years-10months and 10months, respectively. The first and the second case were embryonal carcinoma and the third was benign teratoma histologically. High orchiectomy was performed and all cases are well without any evidence of metastasis up to the present. Collecting 85 cases of testicular tumor in infancy and childhood since 1963 to June 1968 from Japanese literature, we reviewed and discussed age incidence, site of tumor, histological diagnosis, symptom, treatment and prognosis of this disease.
