NSGCT

non-seminomatous germ cell tumor(English)

  • a unique and exclusive germ cell tumor. Non-seminoma can harbor different histologic components, commonly embryonal cell cancer, teratoma, yolk sack tumor and choriocarcinoma, as well as teratocarcinoma and seminoma, in combination with non-seminomatous germ cell tumors histologic types. The clinical definition of stage I non-seminoma is the absence of metastatic lesions on imaging and normal tumor markers. The cure rate for clinical stage I NSGCT is 99% and this can be achieved by three therapeutic strategies: Active surveillance with treatment at the time of relapse, retroperitoneal lymph node dissection or adjuvant chemotherapy, with balancing based on an individual risk profile depending on the lymphovascular invasion of the tumor. Germ cell cancers are the most common solid tumors among men between 15 and 40 years
