Overview
On microscopic histopathological analysis of testicular cancer, fried-egg appearance is the characteristic finding of seminoma; marked nuclear atypia is the characteristic finding of embryonal carcinoma; blander cytomorphology, hyaline-type globules, and Schiller-Duval bodies are characteristic findings of yolk sac tumor ; syncytiotrophoblasts and cytotrophoblast cells are the characteristic findings of choriocarcinoma.
Pathogenesis
Germ cells tumors
- Seminomas and non seminotous germ cell tumors have similar pathogenesis[1]
- Aneuploid
- Loss of chromosomes 4,5,11,13,18, and Y
- Gain of chromosomes 7,8,12, and X
- More than 90% of all testicular cancers are germ cell tumors. This type of cancer starts in germ cells, which are the cells that develop into sperms.
- About 50% of all germ cell tumors are seminomas, or seminomatous germ cell tumours. They grow slower than non-seminomas.
- Overrepresentation of short arm of chromosomes 12p may be related to invasive growth of seminomas and nonseminomatous testicular cancer.[2]
- Seminomas tumors may have both genetic and immune components due to lymphocytes infiltration in HIV patients.[3]
- Histological of seminomas tumor in HIV patients: tumor infiltrated by lymphocytes which may lead to weak immune system response.[3]
- familial contribution:[4]
- Gene on chromosome Xq27 may be related to testicular germ cell tumors
Microscopic Pathology
Germ cell Tumors[5]
- Clonal proliferation of neoplastic germ cells
- Fried-egg appearance
- Non-seminomas
-
- Marked nuclear atypia
-
- Blander cytomorphology
- Hyaline-type globules
- Schiller-Duval bodies
-
- Both syncytiotrophoblasts and cytotrophoblast cells
Genetics
Genes involved in the pathogenesis of renal oncocytoma include:[7]
- 4q22
- 7q22
- 16q22.3
- 17q22
