Plain-English summary
An 8-year-old Doberman was diagnosed with a Sertoli cell tumor after having his right testicle surgically removed. This type of tumor can develop in male dogs and may not show obvious symptoms initially. The surgery successfully removed the tumor, and the unusual features found during examination were noted by the veterinary team. The dog is expected to recover well after the procedure.
