β‐Catenin alterations in testicular Leydig cell tumour: a immunohistochemical and molecular analysis

Testicular Leydig cell tumours (LCTs) are the most common type of sex cord-stromal tumour in men, representing 1%-3% of all testicular neoplasms. Among testicular sex cord-stromal tumours, CTNNB1 mutations and nuclear expression of β-catenin have been typically associated with Sertoli cell tumour. Recent genomic analyses have shown that CTNNB1 variants are also identified in a subset of LCTs; however, the frequency and clinicopathologic associations of β-catenin alterations remain incompletely understood in this tumour type.
