Comparison of clinical characteristics of testicular tumor between children and adult population: a retrospective analysis
The majority of pediatric cases were benign compared to adult. The most common type was prepubertal teratoma and yolk sac tumor. Pediatric TTs often occurred under the age of 1 year. Seminomas and prepubertal teratomas were commonly found in adult TTs, especially for young adult. We found that pediatric tumor type was associated with age and tumor size. TSS should be considered for benign TTs based on frozen biopsy findings in children.
