I had stage 1b seminoma 3.6cm and just relapsed in my left abdominal node 2.4cm 4 months after orchiectomy. AFP and HCG undetectable and LDH dropped from 227 before surgery to 199 now.
There's a 13 year old boy with a teratoma (about 2 cm). His blood works are good. CT also showed his organs are good. The doctor advised to remove a testicle which has teratoma. Is it possible just to remove teratoma saving testicle?
This is very detailed and comprehensive! thank you

Thank you for the recommendation, I look forward to completing this lecture 🎼
At 19:50, I mistakenly said “If residual”. I should have said, “If the resected” instead.

Is it correct that a pelvic CT will give the patient a 59% increase in testicular cancer
No
Dr what the meaning LDH
LDH level more than 3 times upper normal value.
