| Occasionally, true Leydig cell hyperplasia or at least relative prominence of Leydig cells in an atrophic testis may suggest a small Leydig cell tumor, but these are typically multifocal and separated by seminiferous tubules, a setting that should always favor a nonneoplastic proliferation. Leydig cell tumor differs from Leydig cell hyperplasia by being solitary, whereas nodular Leydig cell hyperplasia is characteristically multifocal. |
