Presentation

A review of the literature on germ cell testicular tumor in men sixty years old and over is also presented. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

However, it is present as a component of almost ninety percent of mixed nonseminomatous germ cell tumours. The average age at diagnosis is 31 years, and typically presents as a testicular lump which may be painful. [en.wikipedia.org]

Gastrointestinal

  • Epigastric Pain

    Here we describe a 72-year-old man who remained undiagnosed for a prolonged period of time because of intractable epigastric pain. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Neurologic

  • Polyneuropathy

    Abstract Neuropathy target esterase (NTE) is a protein involved in the development of a polyneuropathy caused by exposure to certain organophosphorus compounds. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Urogenital

  • Secondary Amenorrhea

    The case of a 12-year-old female with a history of secondary amenorrhea for 6 months is reported; her symptoms included decreased visual acuity, dizziness and postprandial vomiting over a 1-month period. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Workup

The patient elected observation after further workup showed no evidence of metastasis.A repeat ultrasound 3 months later showed interval growth and the patient underwent right radical orchiectomy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Serum

  • Karyotype Abnormal

    As evidences suggesting the role of karyotypic abnormalities (e.g., aneuploidy and near-tetraploidy) and stem cell in tumor development are increasing, it becomes pertinent to study karyotypically abnormal embryonal carcinoma cells. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment

We report a rare case of advanced testicular cancer that describes the natural progression of testicular cancer without medical treatment. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis

The prognosis is very poor for patients with teratocarcinoma, embryonal carcinoma, or choriocarcinoma, despite aggressive therapy. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

A component of embryonal carcinoma is often found in mixed germ-cell tumors, in which case it is usually the most aggressive component, and dictates prognosis. [radiopaedia.org]

Etiology

ETIOLOGY •Embryonal carcinoma is a NON-SEMINOMATOUS germ cell tumour characterized by primitive epithelial cells with marked pleomorphism and various histologic patterns. It may present in pure form but often is part of a mixed germ cell tumour. [slideshare.net]

(Etiology) The cause of Embryonal Carcinoma of the Testis is unknown. [dovemed.com]

About 3-10% of pure germ cell tumors are embryonal carcinomas, and embryonal carcinomas are present in more than 80% of mixed germ cell tumors. [1, 2] Etiology Genetic and environmental factors play a role in the development of germ cell tumors, [3, 4 [emedicine.medscape.com]

Epidemiology

Epidemiological studies evidenced an increased incidence of testicular germ cell cancer after elevated pre-natal estrogen exposure but the expression of estrogen receptors in these testicular neoplasms has not been well elucidated. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

[…] cells recapitulating early stages of embryonic development Essential features Age at presentation: 30's Pure in 2% of the cases; most commonly part of mixed germ cell tumor More than 60% have metastases at presentation Multiple morphologic patterns Epidemiology [pathologyoutlines.com]

Introduction Testicular tumors can be of germ cell or non-germ cell origin germ cell origin are the majority (95%) and are more commonly malignant non-germ cell origin usually benign Epidemiology incidence most common cancer in men between 15-35 years [step1.medbullets.com]

Epidemiology Embryonal carcinoma is one of the most common germ cell tumors. The peak incidence occurs in persons aged 20-30 years. It is extremely rare in infants. [emedicine.medscape.com]

Prevention

Maintaining Foxm1 expression prevents the downregulation of pluripotency-related transcription factors such as Oct4 and Nanog during P19 cell differentiation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Hopefully it prevents an infection. I have a son in jr. kindergarten, so infections are always a possibility in this house. Vicfirth: I have been following your threads and I hope that you won�t need to go down this road. [tc-cancer.com]

Cancer Detection and Prevention 6:119–130 Google Scholar Vawter GF, Tefft M (1966) Congenital tumors of the parotid gland. [link.springer.com]

Removal of the testis Debulking surgery to reduce tumor size, followed by chemotherapy Clotting the vessels in the tumor (embolization) Chemotherapy Radiotherapy Undertaking treatment of underlying conditions How can Embryonal Carcinoma of the Testis be Prevented [dovemed.com]
