Presentation Transcript

  1. Testicular tumours Urology 2012

  2. Case presentation • History • 25 • C/o hemoptysis, abdominal discomfort; • History of UDT, right side-operated • No child 2

  3. On exam: • Generally well • Scar R groin • Nodes palpable, inguinal • Big R testis, normal L testis • What next?

  4. Outcomes • Clinical presentation –age, Metastasis • Classification • Diagnosis • Differential diagnosis • Management

  5. Epidemiology • Incidence • 2-3/100 000 in whites • <1/100 000 in blacks • R > L 2-3% bilateral • 95% Germ cell • Age • 16-35 yrs

  6. Aetiology • Gonadal dysgenesis • Hereditary not clear • Environmental factors • Chemical carcinogens • Infections • 7-10% in undescended testis- Dysgenesis, temp, Abn blood supply, endocrine dysf(x)

  7. Risk Factors • Previous history of testicular tumor • UDT • Infertility • Atrophic testis • CIS

  8. Anatomy

  9. Classification • Germ cell • Seminoma • Non seminoma • Embryonal • Choriocarcinoma • Teratocarcinoma • Yolk sac tumour • Mixed variant • Non Germ cell • Leydig cell • Sertoli cell • Sarcoma • leukaemia • Lymphoma • metastasis

  10. Frequency • Seminoma -30% • Embryonal Carcinoma- 30% • Teratoma- 10% • Teratocarcinoma- 25% • Choriocarcinoma -1% • Combined- 15%o

  11. Tumour markers • AFP • B-HCG • LDH

  12. Metastatic pattern • Local • Lymphatic • hematogenous

  13. Clinical presentetion • 50% have metastasis on diagnosis • 10% present with this as first sx • Neck mass, respiratory, GIT, bone pain, neurological, lower extremities • Local • Heavy feeling or painless swelling • 10% acute testicular pain • 5% Gynecomastia

  14. Examination • Local exam • Contra lateral vs. ipsilateral testis , • Epydidimis • Spermatic cord • Abdominal • General

  15. Differential diagnosis • Testicular torsion • Epidydimo-orchitis • Hydrocoele • Inguinoscrotal hernia • paratesticular tumours

  16. Investigations • Laboratory • Serum tumour markers • FBC, U&E,LFT`s • Radiological • Sonar • CXR • CT scan abdomen • Role of MRI?

  17. Sonar

  18. CT Scan

  19. MRI

  20. staging • Clinical and surgical • Tumor type • degree of infiltration • Vascular invasion • Lymph metastasis • Distant metastasis • Serum tumor markers

  21. Staging • A- confined to testis • B -Retroperitoneal spread • B1-3 • C- Metastatic disease • Or TNMS staging

  22. Prognosis • Mortality • 50% in 1970 • Cure rate of > 95 % now! • Morbidity • Tumour related • Treatment related • Fertility?,QOL

  23. Prognosis • Seminoma –overall cure rate is > 90% • Age – older patients • Sperm cryopreservation? • B HCG positive in 5-10% • very radio & chemosensitive

  24. Non seminoma • Choriocarcinoma- Can present with extensive metastasiss with paradoxically small primary • Teratoma- mature and immature elements • Yolk sac tumour- In infants and young children

  25. treatment • NB Multimodal • Radical orchidectomy • Radiotherapy • Chemotherapy • Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection • Follow up

  26. General comments • Misdiagnosis common • No transscrotal biopsies • Good work-up • Quick referral • Follow up !

  27. Other • Extragonadal germ cell tumours • Leydig cell – 10% malignant, present in children with virilising and in adults feminising. • Sertoli cell- any age.10% malignant • Gonadoblastoma- In dysgenetic gonads

  28. Secondary tumours • Lymphoma • Leukaemic infiltration • Metastasis- prostate, Breast, kidney

  29. Thank you
