Evaluation Of Non-Metastatic Testicular Cancer Pathology Results: Our Clinical Experience And Review Of The Literature
Abstract
Introduction:
Testicular cancer is a rarely seen malignancy in men with a ratio of 10/100000. Testicular cancers are mostly affecting adolescents, young adults and it comprises nearly %1 of
all male cancers.
Materials and Methods:
32 patients that were undergone radical orchidectomy due to testicular cancer between January 2007 and July 2016 were included in this study. The design of the study was retrospective.
Results:
When the pathologic materials were evaluated; 15 patients (46.8%) had mixt germ cell tumor, 9 patients (28.1%) had seminoma, 1 patient (3.1%) had testicular lymphoma, 3 patients (9.3%) had yolk sac tumor, 2 patients (6.2%) had hipocellular inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor(burned-out testicule tumor), 2 patients (6.2%) had sex cord stromal tumor.
Conclusion:
In our study we reviewed the histopathologic results of 32 patients. There were no lymph node or distant metastasis for the patients and during the follow-up program there were no recurrence or progression. Testicular cancers are important uropathologic entities for treatment and close follow up. Our clinical experience has been presented in the study.
