Complete androgen insensitivity syndrome is a rare X-linked recessive disorder. In patients with this syndrome, testicular tumors, especially seminoma, may develop after puberty. Gonadal malignancies like sertoli cell tumor, yolk sac tumor; embryonic teratoma and unclassified sex cord stromal tumor are rare in these patients. We present here, a case of complete androgen insensitivity syndrome with sertoli cell adenoma in a 25 years old patient who presented to us with history of primary amenorrhoea and bilateral inguinal swellings and was managed with bilateral gonadectomy.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/njr.v1i1.6327 Nepalese Journal of Radiology Vol.1(1): 61-64

The complete androgen insensitivity syndrome (AIS), previously called testicular feminization syndrome, is an X-linked recessive rare disorder. AIS is the most common male pseudohermaphrodite. Patient has 46, XY chromosome and testis. The individual is phenotypically female and genotypically male. Antimullerian hormone is produced by the testis. So, uterus and fallopian tubes do not develop in fetus. The fault lies with androgen receptors which are mutated. Male differentiation of external genitals does not occur. The individuals are reared as girls and the condition is suspected when the individual is evaluated for primary amenorrhea, infertility or when unilateral/bilateral inguinal hernia is diagnosed in girls. This disorder includes a spectrum of changes ranging from male infertility to completely normal female external genitalia in a chromosomally male individual. These cases need proper diagnosis and appropriate management. We report this case for its interesting presentation. The patient is a 23 year old female, presented with bilateral labial swellings and primary amenorrhoea. Subsequent investigations were done which revealed that the patient is a genetically male with absence of female internal genitalia but presence of testes. Proper psychological support was also given to her, which is more important.

Abstract Sertoli cell tumor of the testis (SCTT) accounts for less than 1% of all testicular tumors with only 10% of cases exhibiting malignant behavior. In the present report, a case of malignant SCTT causing multiple metastases in a 32-year-old man is described. After being diagnosed and treated for bone and lymph nodes metastases, the patient presented with a brief history of worsening headaches and visual impairment. A head MRI demonstrated an extra-axial tumor located in the right fronto-parietal junction exhibiting avid contrast enhancement and leptomeningeal involvement. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this represents the second case of intracranial metastasis from SCTT described to date.
