Article Abstract
Objective: To investigate different treatment methods for stage-Is testicular mixed germ cell tumors (TMGCTs).
Methods: We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data about 3'cases of stage-Is TMGCTs (aged 26-39 years) treated in the 175th Hospital of PLA, reviewed relevant literature, and explored the clinical characteristics of TMGCTs.
Results: Of the 3 patients, 1 was treated by radical orchiectomy, 1 by radical orchiectomy + retroperitoneal lymph node dissection + BEP chemotherapy scheme, and the other by radical orchiectomy + radiotherapy. The pathological components of TMGCTs were immature teratoma, seminoma, spermatocytoma, chorioepithelioma, embryonal carcinoma, and yolk sac tumor. No recurrence or distant metastasis was found during the 24-month follow-up after surgery.
Conclusion: The diagnosis of TMGCTs primarily depends on physical examination, ultrasonography, MRI, and measurement of serum tumor markers, while its confirmation necessitates pathological examination, and its treatment is basically radical orchiectomy.

Spermatocytic tumor (ST) is an exceedingly rare testicular neoplasm with non-specific clinical presentations, requiring histopathological confirmation for diagnosis. Radical orchiectomy remains the cornerstone of treatment, achieving favorable outcomes in most cases. However, early metastasis observed in some patients emphasizes the necessity of comprehensive systemic staging at diagnosis and rigorous postoperative surveillance.

Background And Objective: Delayed orchiectomy is generally recommended for patients who receive upfront chemotherapy for advanced testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs). However, the risk of residual disease in the primary tumor and the relationship this has on oncologic outcomes are unclear. We aimed to understand the histopathologic and oncologic outcomes of patients undergoing delayed orchiectomy.

Background: Primary testicular lymphoma is a rare disease that usually occurs in men over 50 years of age. It is considered a highly aggressive disease with a poor prognosis due to the high rate of relapse in different extranodal sites. In this report, we present a case of primary testicular lymphoma with extranodal involvement in the stomach.
