Overview
Based on the histology, testicular seminoma may be classified into three subtypes: classic, anaplastic, and spermatocytic.[1]
Classification
Based on the histology, testicular seminoma may be classified into three subtypes:[1][2]
- Classic: 85%, infrequent mitoses, monotonous sheet of large cells with abundant cytoplasm and round hyperchromatic nuclei, prominent nucleoli
- Anaplastic: 10%, 3 or more mitotic figures per high-power field
- Spermatocytic: 5%, older male patients above 60 years old, rarely metastasise; well-differentiated with cells resembling secondary spermatids
