Testicular germ-cell tumours and penile squamous cell carcinoma: Appropriate management makes the difference [PDF]
Germ-cell tumours (GCT) of the testis and penile squamous cell carcinoma (PeSCC) are a rare and a very rare uro-genital cancers, respectively. Both tumours are well defined entities in terms of management, where specific recommendations - in the form of ...

Types of testicular tumors in Shahid Beheshti Hospital of Babol, Iran, during 2001‒2021 [PDF]
Background. Testicular tumors account for about 1% of all male cancers. Considering that there is no accurate information about the prevalence of testicular tumors in Iran, this study aimed to investigate the types of testicular tumors in the hospitals ...

Low-grade glial neoplasms of germ cell origin may represent maturation of embryonic-type neuroectodermal elements. [PDF]
Our results support that low grade glial tumours of germ cell origin (LGGTs) represent a phenomenon of maturation (either spontaneous or induced by therapy) of embryonic‐type neuroectoderm, being possibly equivalent to teratoma from a biological perspective.

Clinical presentation, management and follow-up of 83 patients with Leydig cell tumors of the testis: a prospective case-cohort study [PDF]
LCTs are more frequent than generally believed, are associated with male infertility, cryptorchidism and gynecomastia, and should be treated conservatively (in compliant patients) with active surveillance, which appears to be a safe alternative to ...

Testicular Seminoma With Pseudocyst and Coagulation Necrosis Like Burned-out Tumor: A Case Report
Testicular seminoma is a relatively common testicular cancer; however, testicular seminoma with pseudocyst is an extremely rare. The ‘burned-out’ phenomenon in germ cell tumors refers to a germ cell tumor in extra-gonadal tissues with spontaneous ...

Pan-urologic cancer genomic subtypes that transcend tissue of origin [PDF]
Urologic cancers include cancers of the bladder, kidney, prostate, and testes, with common molecular features spanning different types. Here, we show that 1954 urologic cancers can be classified into nine major genomic subtypes, on the basis of ...

Summary: Aberrant male germline development can lead to the formation of seminoma, a testicular germ cell tumor. Seminomas are biologically similar to primordial germ cells (PGCs) and many bear an isochromosome 12p [i(12p)] with two additional copies of ...

Downregulation of Clusterin Expression in Human Testicular Seminoma
Background: Clusterin, a heterodimeric glycoprotein of approximately 80 kDa, exists extensively in human body fluids. The abnormal expression of clusterin is closely related to the occurrence, progression, and prognosis of tumors.
