...Lothar Weissbach; Roswitha Bussar-Maatz; Klaus Mann Objectives: In the course of a prospective multicenter trial, the value of tumor markers in seminomas was assessed. Methods: Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and placental alkaline phosphatase (P1AP) were determined...

Serum tumour markers (a-fetoprotein and/or human choriogonadotropin)were elevated before orchiectomy in 51 % of the evaluated patients. During the studied 12-year period, considering seminoma and non-seminoma patients combined, the overall...

... of a large multicentre study to assess the prognosis of HCG-positive seminomas 726 eligible patients were recruited from 1986 to 1991. A total of 378 had elevated and 348 had normal HCG measured in the CV. In 144 patients samples were taken from the TV. Histological diagnosis of seminoma was confirmed by two...

...I. Damjanov Testicular germ cell tumours are subdivided clinically into two major groups:seminomas and non-seminomatous germ cell tumours (NSGCT). The relationship of seminomas to NSGCT remains controversial. The pathogenesis of NSGCT has been studied experimentally in mice...
