Abstract :
Neuroendocrine neoplasms of the testis are extremely rare, accounting for 0.2% of all testicular neoplasms. Although the origin of the primary testicular neuroendocrine tumour is controversial, components of mature teratoma, leydig cells and intratubular germ cell neoplasia have been reported as precursor lesions (1, 2).
