*Well differentiated -
**Mature Sertoli cells line form tubules that grow in a fibrous stroma containing clusters of Leydig
cells
*Intermediate to poorly differentiated - 
**A more disorganized, more cellular tumor with less mature Sertoli cells growing in trabeculae and nests.  Some tubule formation, either round or retiform. Leydig cells, either singly or in clusters, are present in a cellular stroma.

Sertoli-Leydig cell tumour, also Sertoli-Leydig tumour, is a rare tumour of the gonad in the sex cord-stromal group of tumours.

General

  • Sertoli and leydig cells are normal in the testis.
    • Tumor was called androblastoma or arrhenoblastoma in the past
  • May present with masculinization (virilization).[1]
  • May present as abdominal swelling or pain.
  • Generally a tumor of younger women and can present in children.[2]
    • 75% younger than 30 years of age
    • 10% over 50 years of age.
  • DICER1 mutation common in moderately and poorly differentiated Sertoli-Leydig cell tumours.[3]

Microscopic

Features:

  • Sertoli or Leydig cells.[4]
    • Leydig cells:
      • Polygonal pink cells
      • Abundant solid or somewhat granular eosinophilic cytoplasm.
      • Round nuclei with fine chromatin and a small or indistinct nucleolus.
      • Often in small clusters ~ 5-25 cells/cluster.
    • Sertoli cells:
      • Pale/clear vacuolated cytoplasm.
      • Irregular nuclei with irregular/vacuolated-appearing chromatin.
      • Architecture: tubules, cords or sheets.
        • Classic Sertoli tubule shows an 'antipodal arrangement of nuclei'
          • Nuclei sit near the basement membrane away from the tubule lumen.
          • A fair bit of cytoplasm sits above the nucleus.
          • Lumen is round.
      • Mitotic activity may be much lower than expected for the degree of atypia (in comparison to adenocarcinoma).
    • Stroma
      • Varies from fibrous pink stroma in well differentiated tumors to cellular primative stroma in poorly differentiated tumors.
      • +/-Stromal edema may be prominent
  • Growth Patterns:
    • Well-differentiated.
      • Hollow or solid tubules of mature Sertoli cells with Leydig cells in the intervening stroma.
    • Intermediate (most common).
      • Jumbled admixture of dark blue Sertoli cells and Leydig cells.
      • Lobules comprising sheets of Sertoli cells.
      • Some areas of tubules.
    • Poorly differentiated.
      • Masses of malignant spindle cells – sheets of cells can be reminiscent of fibrosarcoma or granulosa cell tumour.
      • Tubules may be a very minor element.
      • Poorly differentiated tumours have sarcomatous features.[4]
    • Retiform.[5]
      • Tumour resembles rete testis/ovary with an irregular network of elongated slit-like tubules and cysts, which may contain papillae.
    • With heterologous element.
      • Mucinous intestinal-type epithelium, cartilage, skeletal muscle.
      • Heterologous elements can occur in retiform or poorly differentiated tumours.
      • +/-Sarcomatous features (mucinous glands, bone, cartilage).


DDx:

  • Endometrioid carcinoma of the ovary (sertoliform variant)
    • Should be positive for EMA, CK7 and negative for inhibin and calretinin.[6]
    • Should have some characteristic areas of endometriod carcinoma and may have some typical features
      • Cilia, squamous metaplasia, mucin production
  • Luteinized adult granulosa cell tumour - super rare, 50% of cell with eosinophilic cytoplasm, other findings of granulosa cell tumour, e.g. Call-Exner bodies. More likely to be keratin negative than a Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor. [7]
  • Ovarian carcinosarcoma - especially considering poorly differentiated versions with heterologous areas.

Retiform variant

  • Ovarian serous carcinoma - generally carcinoma patients are older.
  • Ovarian yolk sac tumor

Prognosis

  • Dependant on degree of differentiation and stage at presentation.[8]
  • Heterologous mesenchymal elements may portend a worse outcome.[9]

IHC

Features:[10]

  • Inhibin +ve
  • Calretinin +ve.
  • WT-1 +ve.
  • Melan A (MART-1) +ve - marks the Leydig component.
  • Vimentin +ve.[11]
  • CD99 +ve.
  • AE1/AE3 and pankeratin +ve

Others:[11]

Keep in mind that this is a biphasic tumor - Leydig cells will not be Pan-keratin positive - Sertoli cells do not express calretinin - Both components express inhibin - etcetera - interpreting this immunopanal requires correlation with the histomorphology. Immunoreactivity may be focal.

Pan-keratins and AE1/AE3 may mark granulosa cell tumors and Sertoli cell tumors causing confusion with adenocarcinoma. EMA is a better marker to exclude an epithelial tumor as EMA is negative in sex cord-stromal tumors. Highlighting why a panel of stains is needed, endometrioid adenocarcinomas may occasionally weakly express inhibin, calretinin or WT-1.
