Carcinoma in situ -from clinical observation to a paradigm shift for testicular carcinogenesis.
نویسنده
چکیده
Carcinoma in situ in the testis has its origin in the fetal gonad and leads to testicular cancer in young adulthood. It can be detected in a testicular biopsy and treated with irradiation, which can preserve testosterone production of the man. These are the key findings of Niels E. Skakkebaek that changed our view of testicular tumourigenesis during the last fifty years. These and other findings are discussed in this interview-based review of testicular germ cell cancer.

I-1: Screening of Subfertile Men for Testicularlar Carcinoma In Situ by An Automated Image Analysis-Based Cytological Test of The Ejaculate
Background: Testicular cancer (TC) is usually diagnosed after manifestation of an overt tumour. Tumour formation is preceded by a pre-invasive and asymptomatic stage, carcinoma in situ (CIS) testis, except for very rare subtypes. The CIS cells are located within seminiferous tubules but can be exfoliated and detected in ejaculates with specific CIS markers. Materials and Methods: We have built ...

Background: Testicular Carcinoma in situ (CIS), also known as intratubular germ cell neoplasia (ITGCN), is a pre-invasive precursor of testicular germ cell tumours (TCGTs), i.e seminomas and non-seminomas -the commonest cancer type of male adolescents and young adults- which can be diagnosed using a surgical biopsy. Infertility is one of the condition known to predispose to TGCT, but based on s...

Carcinoma in situ in the contralateral testis was diagnosed in 27 of 500 patients (5.4%) with unilateral testicular germ cell cancer. Eight of the 27 patients received intensive chemotherapy for spread of their initial testicular cancer. Follow up biopsy studies did not detect changes of carcinoma in situ in any of these patients, and none developed a contralateral testicular tumour (observatio...
