Abstract

Granulosa cell tumor of the testis is a rare intermediate stromal cell tumor that can be distinguished in adult and juvenile type. The juvenile type is commonly presented in infants less than a year old-most often during the first 6 months of life and can be associated with ambiguous genitalia and chromosomal anomalies. We report two cases of juvenile granulosa cell tumor (JGCT) of the testis diagnosed in the neonatal period and review the typical sonographic findings of this entity.

Key words： Newborn; Testicular neoplasms; Granulosa cell tumor; Ultrasonography; Differential diagnosis
