Stromal Tumors: tumors that begin in the cells that make hormones and in the supportive tissues (stroma) of the testicles. These tumors are often benign and do not spread beyond the testicle; however, when stromal cell tumors spread to other parts of the body, they have a poor prognosis because they do not respond well to treatments.
