genetics of testicular germ cell tumors
testicular germ cell tumor (tgct) is the most solid tumor in 20-40 years old man. tgct account for 95% of testicular tumors and represent a unique type of human cancer from several different perspectives. tgct arise by transformation of germ cells. the transformed germ cells exhibit ploripotentially to differentiate into embryonic. extra-embryonic, and somatic tissue types, and are highly sensi...
متن کاملIncreased risk of testicular germ cell cancer among infertile men.
BACKGROUND The risk of testicular cancer is thought to be higher among men seeking infertility treatment compared with the general population. Confirmation of this risk in a large US cohort of at-risk patients is lacking. This study explored the association between male infertility and subsequent development of testicular cancer in a US-based cohort. METHODS A total of 51 461 couples evaluate...
متن کاملBilateral testicular germ cell tumors.
Testicular cancer represents 1% to 1.5% of neoplasias in males and 5% of urologic tumors in general. The incidence of bilateral testicular tumors is 1-5%. Approximately one third of the cases are diagnosed as synchronous, while the other two thirds are diagnosed as metachronous tumors. Additionally, 5% of all patients diagnosed with testicular cancer may have contralateral intratubular germ cel...
متن کاملBilateral germ-cell testicular cancer - long-term experience.
BACKGROUND Germ cell testicular cancer (TC) patients have an increased risk of developing a contralateral TC. This paper presents a retrospective analysis of patients with bilateral TC from a database of a single center and aims to highlight the need for an individual approach. MATERIAL AND METHODS In the study period from January 1970 to June 2013, a total of 1,438 patients with primary TC w...
متن کاملGerm cell origin of testicular carcinoid tumors.
PURPOSE Carcinoids are neuroendocrine tumors and most frequently occur within tissues derived from the embryonic gut. These tumors can occur in any organ site but are rare in the testis. The cell type giving rise to testicular carcinoid is unknown. We hypothesized that testicular carcinoid may have a germ cell origin. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN We describe our analysis of protein and genetic markers...
