Specimen: Orchidectomy.

Macro: This is a testis measuring 56 x 36 x 24mm with attached spermatic cord measuring 57 x 12 x 14mm. The tunica vaginalis is mostly intact with a small defect inferiorly. On slicing within the lower half of the testicle there is a circumscribed tumour measuring 15 x 19mm. It is composed of pale and yellow tissue with focal haemorrhage. It appears confined to the testis and does not involve the tunica albuginea. The rest of the testis and the epididymis are unremarkable. The spermatic cord appears normal.

Immunohistochemistry:
Positive for OCT3/4, AE1/AE3 and CD30. Negative for PLAP, Glypican 3 and AFP.
