Abstract
Background: Testicular tumors constitute 1-2% of malignancies in males. It is usually seen in young patients and its incidence increases in the 4th decade. Germ cell tumors are the most common histologic subtype. Our aim is to evaluate the testicular tumor cases, which were diagnosed in our department, retrospectively. Materials and Method: Pathology reports of 83 orchiectomy patients, which were diagnosed at the department of pathology in Süleyman Demirel University between 2007 and 2012, were evaluated, retrospectively. Tumoral cases were selected and classified according to the 2004 World Health Organization classification system. Results: A total of 45 testicular tumors were found in our pathology archive diagnosed between 2007 and 2012. Of the 45 tumoral cases 16 (35.6%) were classical seminoma, 3 (6.7%) were spermatocytic seminoma, 1 (2.2%) was seminoma with syncytiotrophoblastic cells, 1 (2.2%) was embryonal carcinoma, 17 (37.8%) were mixed germ cell tumors, 6 (13.3%) were lymphoma and 1 (2.2%) was intratubular germ cell neoplasia. Germ cell tumors constituted 86.7% of all testicular tumors, and 51.3% of them were seminomas. Conclusion: Germ cell tumors, which constituted the majority of testicular tumors in our series, included mostly seminomas and mixed germ cell tumors

Abstract
Giriş: Testis tümörleri erkeklerdeki malign tümörlerin %1-2'sini oluşturmaktadır. Sıklıkla genç erkeklerde görülmekte olup dördüncü dekatta pik yapmaktadır. En sık görülen histolojik tip germ hücreli tümörlerdir. Bu çalışmada arşiv taraması yaparak bölümümüzde tanısı konan testis tümörü olgularının retrospektif olarak incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem: Çalışmamızda 2007–2012 yılları arasında Süleyman Demirel Üniversitesi Tıp Fakültesi Tıbbi Patoloji Anabilim Dalı'na histopatolojik inceleme için gönderilen 83 orşiektomi olgusu retrospektif olarak incelendi. Tümör tanısı alanlar seçilerek 2004 Dünya Sağlık Örgütü sınıflamasına göre sınıflandırıldı.
Bulgular: Çalışmamızın sonucunda 5 yıllık arşivimizde 45 adet testis tümörü tespit edilmiştir. Kırk beş tümörlü orşiektomi olgusundan 16'sı (%35,6) klasik seminom, 3'ü (%6,7) spermatositik seminom, 1'i (%2,2) sinsityotrofoblastik hücreli seminom, 1'i (%2,2) embryonal karsinom, 17'si (%37,8) mikst germ hücreli tümör, 6'sı (%13,3) lenfoma ve 1'i (%2,2) intratübüler germ hücreli neoplazi tanısı almıştır. Germ hücreli tümörler tüm testis tümörlerinin %86,7'sini oluştururken, germ hücreli tümörlerin de %51,3'ünü seminomların oluşturduğu görülmüştür.
Sonuç: Serimizde yer alan testis tümörlerinin çoğunluğunu germ hücreli tümörler, bunların da çoğunluğunu seminomlar ve mikst germ hücreli tümörler oluşturmaktadır.
