Abstract: Sertoli cell tumour (SCT) was diagnosed in 19 dogs based on cytological examination of samples from tumour suspected masses. The highest incidence was recorded in Spitz and German shepherd breeds and in dogs of age group more than 5 years old in breed and age wise analysis of SCTs. Cytologic examination revealed neoplastic cells arranged both as individually scattered solitary cells and as loosely cohesive cell aggregates with cytological features of mild to moderate anisocytosis and anisokaryosis, round to oval nuclei containing coarse chromatin and moderate amount of basophilic cytoplasm containing variably sized coarse clear cytoplasmic vacuoles.
