rare testicular tumor from testosterone-producing Leydig cells

A Leydig Cell Tumor is a rare type of tumor that originates from the Leydig cells, which are found in the testes and are responsible for producing testosterone. These tumors can occur in both children and adults and may cause symptoms such as testicular swelling, pain, or hormonal imbalances. While most Leydig Cell Tumors are benign, a small percentage can be malignant and may require surgical removal and further treatment.
