Spermatocytoma

Spermatocytomas are tumor diseases characterized by the presence of one or more spermatocytic cells in the tissues of the prostate gland, seminal vesicles or other organs of the genitourinary system. They can be single or multiple and have different sizes and severity of clinical manifestations.

Spermatocytoma occurs due to a disruption in the development of spermatogonia during the formation of primary germ cells. Spermatogonia are the cells that form sperm. Defects in the operation of this process lead to the formation of a structural defect - spermatosome. It appears inside the cellular structure of the spermatid and is located inside the membrane without damaging it. As a result of defective development, the spermatoid deposits corresponding atypical material inside this structure. This “septum,” called the spermatocerebrum cloud, prevents the formation of normal spermatoids and subsequent spermatocyte formation. This is the main feature of sperm formation
