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 ...

Testicular tumors in prepubescent patients.

, 2018
BACKGROUND/PURPOSE: Pediatric testicular tumors are rare, constituting only 1% of all pediatric solid tumors. Single-institution studies addressing pediatric testicular tumors published to date have been limited in the number of patients.

Prepubertal testicular tumors: Clinical characteristics and indications for testis-sparing surgery in a multicenter retrospective study

Journal of Pediatric Surgery Open
Objectives: We aimed to clarify the characteristics of prepubertal testicular tumors and evaluate the suitability of testis-sparing surgery (TSS) for benign prepubertal testicular tumors, with a focus on clinical outcomes and tumor-specific factors that ...

Cryopreservation of Spermatozoa Prior and Post‐Orchiectomy in Patients With Testicular Germ Cell Cancer—Does the Timing Matter?

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell cancer (TGCC) is the most frequent malignancy in young men of reproductive age. According to guidelines, semen cryopreservation should be performed prior to orchiectomy. Lack of time and local facilities as well as mental pressure are challenges in terms of fertility preservation before surgery.

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 ...

A Unified Machine Learning Model for Relapse Prediction in Clinical Stage I Testicular Cancer

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Approximately one‐fourth of patients with clinical stage I testicular cancer relapse. For decades, risk stratification has been based on different tumor characteristics for seminomas and non‐seminomas. Previous studies primarily used Cox proportional‐hazards models and included only a limited number of variables.

Clinicopathological and Demographics Analysis of Testicular Tumors: A Single-center Experience

Acta Haematologica Oncologica Turcica
Aim: Testicular cancers are among the most prevalent solid tumors in young males. The majority of these cases involve germ cell tumors, with seminomas emerging as the predominant histological subtype. This study aimed to investigate both the clinical and

T Cell Microenvironmental Impacts and Therapeutic Opportunities: Application to Human Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the leading malignancy in adolescent and young adult males, yet the immunological and cellular mechanisms governing their tumor microenvironment (TME) remain poorly understood. Here, we present a comprehensive review of TGCT pathobiology with a focus on the immune landscape, particularly the role of tumor‐

Impact of Chemotherapy on Sperm Functional Characteristics in Patients With Testicular Germ Cell Tumours

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCT) are the most common malignancies among young men and represent a major threat to reproductive health. Both the disease itself and oncological treatments, particularly chemotherapy, can compromise spermatogenesis and semen quality.

Machine learning-based CT texture analysis in the differentiation of testicular masses

Frontiers in Oncology
PurposeTo evaluate the ability of texture features for distinguishing between benign and malignant testicular masses, and furthermore, for identifying primary testicular lymphoma in malignant tumors and identifying seminoma in testicular germ cell tumors,
