Scrotal Involvement with Testicular Nonseminomatous Germ Cell Tumour
A 37-year-old male presented with a traumatic injury to the scrotal region necessitating emergency surgery. Evacuation of a haematoma and bilateral orchidectomy were performed. A left sided nonseminomatous germ cell tumour (NSGCT), predominantly yolk sac, was identified. Microscopic margins were positive for tumour. Initial tumour markers revealed an AFP of 22,854 ng/mL, HCG of <1 mIU/mL, and L...
متن کاملChromosomal changes in human primary testicular nonseminomatous germ cell tumors.
A cytogenetic analysis of 14 primary testicular nonseminomatous germ cell tumors has been carried out after short term tissue culture. The modal chromosome numbers ranged from 53 to 113, in agreement with flow cytometric determination of the DNA content of the tumors. At least one copy of an i(12p) was present in 12 tumors. Two tumors, however, lacked that marker. Some chromosomes are apparentl...
متن کاملInferior Vena Cava Tumour Thrombus from Nonseminomatous Germ Cell Tumour Detected with F-18 FDG PET/CT
21-year-old male presented with recently diagnosed metastatic nonseminomatous germ cell tumour and left orchidectomy. CT demonstrated mixed density in the inferior vena cava (IVC) extending from the union of the common iliac veins to the level of the liver just below the confluence of the hepatic veins. Retroperitoneal nodal disease and deposits in the left lung were suspicious for metastatic d...
متن کاملManagement of Nonseminomatous Germ Cell Tumor of the Testis
About 5-7/100,000 men are diagnosed with testis cancer annually. A large proportion of these are pathologically classified as non-seminomatous germ cell tumor (NSGCT). The majority of NSGCT patients present with clinical stage (CS) I disease, which is characterized by a germ cell tumor confined to the testis, a negative metastatic work-up which includes a chest X-ray (CXR), computed tomography ...
متن کاملIntracaecal Orthotopic Colorectal Cancer Xenograft Mouse Model.
The host microenvironment plays a prominent role in tumor growth, angiogenesis, invasion, metastasis, and response to therapy. Orthotopic tumor model mimics the natural environment of tumor development and provides an effective approach to investigate tumor pathophysiology and develop therapeutic strategies. This protocol describes the technique involving injection of colorectal cancer cell sus...
