Q

GCNIS

A

GCNIS
Present in 80-90% of GCT
50 % risk of transformation in 5 years and 70% in
7 years
Microlithiasis in USG increases the risk.
GCNIS begins in utero.
• Field effect within the testicle.
5% and 9% of patients with GCT have GCNIS
within the unaffected contralateral testis.

Q

Staging ptnm testes

A

pT1
Tumor limited to testis (including rete testis invasion) without lymphovascular invasion
pTia*
Tumor smaller than 3 cm in size
pT1b*
Tumor 3 cm or larger in size
pT2
Tumor limited to testis (including rete testis invasion) with lymphovascular invasion
Tumor invading hilar soft tissue or epididymis or penetrating visceral mesothelial layer
covering the external surface of tunica albuginea with or without lymphovascular invasion
pT3
Tumor directly invades spermatic cord soft tissue with or without lymphovascular invasion
pT4
Tumor invades scrotum with or without lymphovascular invasion
“Subclassification of piT1 applies to only pure seminoma.
(N
Regional Lymph Nodes
Regional lymph nodes cannot be assessed
No regional lymph node metastasis
Metastasis with a lymph node mass 2 cm or smaller in greates
dimension
OR
Multiple lymph nodes, none larger than 2 cm in greatest
dimension
Metastasis with a lymph nots mass larger than 2 cm but not
larger than 5 cm in greatest dimension
OR
Multiple lymph nodes, any one mass larger than 2 cm but not
larger than 5 cm in greatest dimension
Metastasis with a lymph node mass larger than 5 cm in
greatest dimension
Stage 1- confined testes
2- node
3- mets
