Resumen

El tumor de células de Leydig es el más frecuente de los tumores no germinales de testículo, perteneciendo al grupo de los tumores del estroma gonadal especializado. Su incidencia es baja, ya que representa el 1-3% del total de las neoplasias testiculares. Puede manifestarse mediante alteraciones endocrinas debido a su capacidad para secretar hormonas.

Presentamos nuestra serie de ocho casos con la descripción de sus aspectos clínicos, diagnósticos y terapéuticos, así como la evolución de los mismos. Asimismo realizamos una revisión de la literatura sobre este raro tumor testicular.
