Solitary Testicular Metastasis of Prostate Cancer Mimicking Primary Testicular Cancer [PDF]

Korean Journal of Urology, 2011
We report a rare case of testicular metastasis from prostate cancer. A 68-year-old patient presented with a right testicular mass with discomfort. He had a history of robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy and had received adjuvant radiation therapy and had been treated with androgen deprivation therapy continuously at another institution ...

BRD9 inhibition as potential treatment option for testicular germ cell tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the predominant tumor in younger males. Usually, 5‐year survival rates are quite high, but 15–20% of patients with metastatic non‐seminomas are resistant to standard cisplatin‐based therapy.

Testicular Seminoma With Pseudocyst and Coagulation Necrosis Like Burned-out Tumor: A Case Report

Urology Case Reports, 2016
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 ...

Thymic cancer mimicking a metastasis of testicular seminoma [PDF]

International Cancer Conference Journal, 2015
A 48-year-old man presented with a left testicular mass. Computed tomography showed an anterior mediastinal tumor, with positive uptake in positron emission tomography images. Radical orchiectomy was performed; the histology was seminoma. Thus, a diagnosis of testicular seminoma with thymic metastasis (stage III) was made and he underwent four courses ...

Semen quality in patients with testicular cancer is associated with age and with greatly elevated levels of beta human chorionic gonadotropin

Andrology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Poor semen quality is a well‐known feature in patients with testicular germ cell tumours (GCTs) at the time of diagnosis but the underlying biological reasons are incompletely understood. Objectives This study aimed to identify GCT‐specific clinical factors that are involved with poor semen quality in GCT patients.

Testicular metastasis of colorectal carcinoma: an unusual presentation [PDF]

BMJ Case Reports, 2013
Metastasis of colorectal carcinoma to testis is rare. The authors report a case of 35-year-old man with right testicular mass. Contrast-enhanced CT scan (CECT) of testes showed testicular mass with ascitis and enlargement of retroperitoneal lymphnodes. Thus, a provisional diagnosis of disseminated primary testicular tumour was made.

The Testicular Cancer Consortium (TECAC): Filling Knowledge Gaps in the Genetic Etiology of Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The Testicular Cancer Consortium (TECAC) was established in 2012 and is comprised of researchers from over 25 centers in Europe and North America. TECAC's overarching goal is to investigate the genetic susceptibility of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) to better understand their biology, impact prevention strategies, and inform ...

Ultrasonographic Pattern of Testicular Metastasis of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma with Pathological Correlation [PDF]

, 2016
Two cases of testicular metastases of a clear cell renal cell carcinoma sharing a very similar ultrasonographic pattern are reported. The observed pattern – masses containing multiple tiny cyst-like areas – is very similar to that of a previously ...

Gastrointestinal Involvement of Testicular Germ Cell Tumor: A Case Report and Literature Review

Case Reports in Gastrointestinal Medicine, 2017
Testicular germ cell tumors (GCT) are the commonest solid tumors in young men. Typical presentation is with painless scrotal swelling; however, symptoms related to complications or metastasis may be the initial presentation.

Inhibition of HMGA2 Leads to Reduced Cell Proliferation and Increased Apoptosis in Human Embryonal Carcinoma Cell Lines

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The most prevalent solid tumors in young men are testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), and embryonal carcinoma is the most common subtype among non‐seminomatous germ cell tumors (NSGCTs). Despite the excellent cure rates of cisplatin‐based chemotherapy, resistance develops in 15%–30% of patients with metastatic cancer, which results ...
