In Situ Expression of miR‐371a‐3p and miR‐373‐3p in Testicular Germ Cell Tumours and Detection in Serum

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs) are the most common type of tumour diagnosed in young men, and reliable non‐invasive biomarkers are crucial for clinical management. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) from the miR‐371–373 cluster have recently been identified as novel and more sensitive serum biomarkers than the conventional protein‐based ...

Incidence of Gonadal and Extragonadal Germ Cell Tumours in Patients With Klinefelter Syndrome

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Klinefelter's syndrome (KS; 47, XXY) is associated with an altered risk profile for malignancies compared with non‐KS males. In particular, several reports have noted a striking association between KS and extragonadal germ cell tumours (EGCTs), especially in the mediastinum, whereas the risk of testicular germ cell tumours (TGCTs ...

Ovarectomy despite Negative Imaging in Anti-NMDA Receptor Encephalitis: Effective Even Late

Case Reports in Neurological Medicine, 2013
Anti-NMDA receptor (NMDAR) encephalitis is an autoimmune antibody-mediated neuropsychiatric disorder. The disorder is known to be associated with ovarian teratoma and predominantly affects young women. Here, we report the case of a 34-year-old woman with

Microsatellite Instability-High Somatic-Type Malignancy Arising From a Primary Retroperitoneal Germ Cell Tumor: A Case Report. [PDF]

IJU Case Rep
ABSTRACT Introduction Immune checkpoint inhibitors have shown only limited clinical efficacy in germ cell tumors (GCTs), underscoring the need for predictive biomarkers such as microsatellite instability‐high (MSI‐high). We report a rare case of mixed‐type GCTs treated with chemotherapy, in which the somatic‐type malignancy (STM) component was found to

Broader Familial Cancer Risk in Relatives of Testicular Cancer Patients: Insights From Two Mediterranean Populations

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Familial clustering of testicular germ cell tumour (TGCT) is well‐established, whereas the risk of non‐testicular cancer among relatives remains inconsistent across studies. Objective To evaluate the overall and site‐specific cancer risk among first‐degree relatives and grandparents of TGCT patients compared to cancer‐free controls.

Successful Multimodal Treatment of Intracranial Growing Teratoma Syndrome with Malignant Features

Current Oncology
Molecular analysis of the growing teratoma syndrome has not been extensively studied. Here, we report a 14-year-old boy with a growing mass during treatment for a mixed germ cell tumor of the pineal region.

Fertility outcomes and ovarian function recovery after anti-NMDAR encephalitis: A retrospective cohort study. [PDF]

Acta Obstet Gynecol Scand
Acute hypothalamic–pituitary–ovarian axis suppression is common in anti‐NMDAR encephalitis, yet ovarian function and fertility recover favorably even in teratoma‐associated cases, supporting reassuring long‐term reproductive prognoses. Abstract Introduction Anti‐N‐methyl‐D‐aspartate receptor (anti‐NMDAR) encephalitis predominantly affects women of ...
