Computed tomography in the staging of testicular neoplasms.

Twenty-six patients with primary testicular tumor were evaluated by computed tomography. It was highly accurate in differentiating lymph node metastases from testicular tumors. CT scanning may reveal tumor in lymph nodes not normally opacified during bipedal lymphangiography. It can also be used in treatment planning, follow-up, and in localizing sites of recurrence when serum tumor markers become positive. Some pitfalls of CT are also discussed.

[Echographic features of testicular neoplasms. Our experience].

14 patients with primitive testicular cancer underwent US and afterwards surgery. A comparison between echo-pattern and hysto-pathology was done with the following results: sharp limits and ipoechoic homogeneous pattern in leydigioma and low-staging seminoma. Presence of anechoic areas and irregular limits: teratoma and embrionary carcinoma with no correlation with the staging. Inclusively no correlation between echo-pattern and staging of neoplasm or presence of neoplastic lymphnodes was observed.

[Cis-platinum in the treatment of disseminated testicular neoplasms resistant to classical chemotherapy].

Seven patients with advanced testicular tumors, resistant to existing chemotheurapeutic agents, were treated with a new antitumor agent, the Cisplatinum (associated to mannitol induced hyperdiuresis). There were 3 objective remissions (1 complete and 2 partial). Major toxicity was gastrointestinal. There was little renal and hematologic toxicity in our serie. The drug may have use in combination therapy in advanced non seminomatous testicular tumors.
