•
•
Embryonal
Choriocarcinoma
Teratoma
Yolk Sac
Mixed
Embryonal Carcinoma
• 40% of all GCTs have EC
elements
• Usually < 2 cm, VI, LI adverse
prognosis
• Syncitiotrophoblastic cells
adjacent to EC cells, produce b
HCG
• If AFP ↑, usually from coexistent yolk sac
• EC cells do not secrete either
AFP or bHCG
• Age 25-35 yrs
• Hard, irregular testis, normal
size
Teratoma
• < 5% in adults, 40% in
children
• By definition, 2 or more
germ cell layers
• Endo – mucus secreting
• Meso – Bone cartilage,
muscle
• Ecto – squamous, neural
• AFP in 25% (mucinous or
hepatoid differentiation)
Mature teratoma with cartilege
Teratoma
• Most often seen 10-30y
• Benign in children
• Can undergo malignant
transformation in adults
to sarcoma, squamous
carcinoma or
adenocarcinoma
• Resistant to
chemoradiation
• Metastatic teratoma –
most often embryonal
Immature teratoma
Choriocarcinoma
• 1-2%, pure or mixed
• Pure CC – hemorrhagic
mass with viable tumor
cells at periphery
• Syncitiotrophoblasts +
cytotrophoblasts
• Necrosis and
hemorrhage
• B HCG  > 99%
• Decades 2 and 3
• No testis swelling, small
nodule
• Usually present with distant
mets – lung and /or brain
• Hematogenous mets most
common
Mixed GCTs
• 60% of all GCTs
• Even if seminoma present, treat as NSGCT
• Serum tumor markers may or may not be
elevated
Yolk Sac tumor (Embryonal Carcinoma
of infants and children )
Most common prepubertal testis tumor
AFP ↑ >90% of pts
Hydrocele in 25% pts
Pattern of mets different in children (more
hematogenous spread)
• Confined to testicle in 80% of cases
• Low volume RP disease - RPLND
•
•
•
•
Intratubular Germ Cell Neoplasia
(ITGCN)
•
•
•
•
•
•
Adjacent to germ cell tumor: 98%
Cryptorchidism: 2-8%
Prior germ cell tumor (contralateral testis): 5%
50% risk of developing GCT in 5y
Treat with observation, XRT (20 Gy) or orchiectomy
Chemo reduces risk but still 25% - 45% risk of GCT at
10y (Christensen et al. Ann. Oncol. 1998)
• Can be precursor to all types of GCT except
spermatocytic seminoma
GCT – Unique Features
• Chemo and radiation
• Retroperitoneum is usually
sensitive
the first and only site of
• Capacity to differentiate
metastatic disease
• Consistent pattern of
• Landing zones for rightmetastasis
sided tumors:
– Interaortocaval, precaval
• Ability to produce marker
lymph nodes
substances (AFP/HCG)
• NSGCT: unique potential for • Landing zones for left-sided
tumors:
teratomatous
– Para-aortic, left hilar
differentiation
lymph nodes
• High growth rates 10-30
days
Right to Left Crossover extremely common
Clinical Staging TNMS
• Findings at Inguinal Orchiectomy
– Histology, size, extent of invasion, LVI
• Imaging
– Chest and Retroperitoneum
– CT scan with IV contrast
– PET CT more accurate for seminoma rather than NSCGT
• Serum Tumor Markers
– AFP, bHCG , LDH
NSCGT
• Choriocarcinoma – can have brain mets
• Brain mets can bleed during chemo
• Check head CT particularly in patient with very
high bHCG and choriocarcinoma
Serum markers
• AFP ↑ in 50% , b HCG ↑ in 50% with NSGCT
• 90% of NSGCT have either one marker ↑
• 10-15% will have neg markers even in advanced
disease
• Normalization of markers after treatment ≠ absence
of disease in 10-20% pts
AFP - AlphaFetoProtein
• Half-life of 5-7 days
• Elevated in embryonal, yolk-sac, mixed
• Excludes diagnosis of seminoma/pure
choriocarcinoma
• False positive with liver disease (hepatitis,
cirrhosis) and drug abuse (alcohol, cocaine)
• Can be elevated in hepatocellular, pancreatic,
stomach, and lung cancers
b HCG- Human Chorionic
Gonadotrophin
• Half Life of 24-36 hours
• Assay cross reactive with β subunit of LH (↑in
castration du to high GnRH)
• Also ↑ in liver, pancreas, stomach breast, lung
cancers and marijuana smokers
• ↑ in chorio/embyronal/ seminoma (10%)
LDH
•
•
•
•
Produced by liver, muscle
>200 U/dl
Can be elevated in various types of GCT
Good marker for seminoma

Scrotal violation
• Local recurrence higher (2.9% vs 0.4%) (Capelouto et
al. J. Urol. 1995)
• Seminoma – extend radiation portal to include
groin and scrotum area
• NSCGT – excise scar and cord remnant
• Extensive groin resection or hemiscrotectomy
not required especially after chemo
NSCGT stage I
• 20-30% occult RP mets

RPLND Templates
Avoid dissection below IMA on contralateral side
Reducing Extra-Template Residual
Disease
• Inclusion of all infrahilar regions except the
contralateral iliac would reduce residual postRPLND disease to:
2% for right-sided templates
3% for left-sided templates
• 3-32% can have disease outside templates
Eggener et al, J Urol, 2007, Carver et al. JCO 2007
RPLND: Technique Matters
• Paracolic recurrences occur following incomplete excision of the
spermatic cord
• Re-operative RPLND has a higher morbidity rate and adversely
impacts survival
• Nerve-sparing is essential to achieve antegrade ejaculation
– Sympathetic chain
– Paravertebral sympathetic ganglia
– Post-gangionic fibers T2-L4

What about RPLND following chemotherapy
for metastatic disease?
• Full bilateral RPLND is currently the standard of care
• Several groups have recommended omitting PC-RPLND in men with a
clinical complete response to chemotherapy
• Modified templates have been suggested in the post-chemotherapy
setting with limited supporting data
• Redo RPLND associated with worse survival (55% vs 84%) (Donahue et al. Sem.
Urol. Oncol. 1998)

– Bilateral in 50%
– Rx with chemo/XRT
A recently married, 25-year-old man, had a radical orchiectomy
for embryonal cell carcinoma. There was lymphatic invasion in
the rete testis. Serum markers, chest and abdominal CT scans
are normal. His semen analysis shows the volume of 3 ML, 25
million sperm per ML, motility 60%, and 50% normal forms. The
patient and his wife want the treatment that gives the best
chance for fertility, as well as the best cancer control. He should
be advised to undergo
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Radiotherapy
Surveillance
Modified retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy
Bilateral retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy
Platinum based combination chemotherapy
A 24-year-old man is treated for stage III mixed germ cell tumor
of the right testis by inguinal orchiectomy, four cycles of BEP
chemotherapy, and post-chemotherapy bilateral RPLND. He
remains disease-free with normal serum tumor markers for four
years. Current physical examination and serum HCG are
normal. Serum AFP is 27 mg/dl (normal less than 10 mg/dl), and
a CT scan of the chest, abdomen, and pelvis demonstrates a
solitary 2 cm mass in the right retrocrural area. The next step is
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Observation
Repeat AFP after IM testosterone.
Additional BEP chemotherapy
Salvage chemotherapy
Excision of the mass
A 27-year-old man has bulky retroperitoneal adenopathy
following radical orchiectomy for a mixed germ cell tumor. His
chest x-ray is normal. Serum beta-HCG and AFP are markedly
elevated. Liver enzymes are slightly elevated and the patient
relates a history of ethanol excess. He receives three cycles of
BEP. Restaging reveals a 3 cm retroperitoneal mass, a normal
chest x-ray, and normal serum beta-HCG. However, the serum
AFP is 20 IU/ML (normal equals 0-9). The next step is
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection.
CT-guided needle biopsy
Salvage chemotherapy
Serial markers and CT scans
External beam radiotherapy
A 26 -year-old man undergoes orchiectomy for seminoma. A CT
scan of the retroperitoneum and tumor markers are
negative. He elects surveillance. The most accurate statement
regarding his outcome over the next 2 years is:
A. 5% risk of visceral relapse
B. Similar to patients treated with radiation
therapy
C. 40% risk of relapse with nonseminomatous
elements
D. 5% risk of retroperitoneal node relapse
E. 50% risk of pulmonary relapse
Modified RPLND preserves fertility in most patients by
sparing which of the following structures?
A.
B.
C.
D.
E.
Internal iliac arteries.
Genitofemoral nerve.
Postganglionic sympathetic nerve fibers.
Seminal vesicles.
Pelvic parasympathetic plexus.
For a 2.5 cm residual retroperitoneal mass post
chemotherapy for advanced pure seminoma
(pretreatment retroperitoneal mass 8 cm in diameter)
the optimal next step in management is:
A. Consolidation radiotherapy.
B. Second time chemotherapy.
C. Excision of the residual mass.
D. Surveillance.
E. Autologous marrow transplant and further
chemotherapy.
A 64 -year-old man has painless right testicular swelling of 3

Lymphoma.
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia.
Spermatocystic seminoma.
