TEST-2
Is TNM staging based on post or pre orchiectomy values of tumor markers?
TNM staging is based on POST-ORCHIECTOMY values of tumor markers.

Surveillance
OR
Consider PET/CT scan from skull base to mid- thigh (6 wks
or more post- chemotherapy)
- If (+), resect residual mass or biopsy, then if (+) viable seminoma with complete resection –> 2 cycles of adjuvant chemo
- If incomplete resection: second line chemo
TEST-5
Primary treatment: Pure seminoma
After primary chemotherapy
IIA-IIC, III
Progressive disease: rising tumor markers, growing mass
Second-line therapy:
Clinical trial (preferred)
Chemotherapy
- Conventional-dose therapy (VeIP or TIP)
- High-dose chemotherapy
Consider surgical salvage if solitary site (for early relapse)
Recommend sperm banking if clinically indicated
