This tumour (spermatoctyic tumour) was previously known as "spermatocytic seminoma".  The term "spermatocytic seminoma" is no longer recommended by the WHO, presumably as the name may: (1) create confusion with "seminoma" and (2) falsely raise the possibility of a mixed tumour (that develops in the context of GCNIS).
