A Rare Case of Canine Metastatic Spermatocytic Tumor without Sarcomatous and Anaplastic Variants

Spermatocytic tumor is a rare testicular tumor, which is originated from gonocytes. It is characterized by the histological feature of tripartite which is composed of large, medium, and lymphocyte-like small cells. It is well-known that spematocytic tumor is benign, thus a good prognosis is expected...
