Article Abstract

• Patients with advanced testicular cancer receive cisplatin-based chemotherapy with a high rate of cure. • Cisplatin-based chemotherapy increases risks of acute vascular complications among testicular cancer survivors. • Cisplatin-based chemotherapy increases cardiovascular disease risk factors and cardiovascular disease among testicular cancer survivors. • Long-term management of cardiovascular risk factors and cardiovascular disease in testicular cancer survivors is recommended.

The timing of cryptorchidism surgery: analysis of the contradiction between guideline consensus and clinical practice implementation.

Cryptorchidism is one of the most common reproductive malformations in children, and the timing of surgery significantly impacts fertility and the risk of testicular cancer. Although international guidelines currently recommend testicular fixation within 6-18 months to improve prognosis, many children worldwide undergo surgery later than the recommended age. Delays in surgery are particularly significant in developing countries.

SLC16A3 (MCT4) expression in tumor immunity and Metabolism: Insights from pan-cancer analysis.

Biochem Biophys Rep

June 2025

The Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital, Guangzhou Medical University, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China.

Background: SLC16A3, a highly expressed H + -coupled symporter, facilitates lactate transport via monocarboxylate transporters (MCTs), contributing to acidosis. Although SLC16A3 has been implicated in tumor development, its role in tumor immunity remains unclear.

Methods: A pan-cancer analysis was conducted using datasets from The Cancer Genome Atlas, Cancer Cell Line Encyclopedia, and Genotype-Tissue Expression projects.

Background: While testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) survival exceeds 90%, many survivors of adult TGCT are at risk for treatment toxicities. Less is known about physical morbidities in children, adolescents, and young adults (CAYA) with TGCT.

Methods: We used the Pediatric Oncology Group of Ontario Networked Information System, the Initiative to Maximize Progress in Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Therapy, and the Ontario Cancer Registry to identify all CAYA males diagnosed with TGCT from 1992 to 2021 at age 11-21 years in Ontario, Canada.

We report a 43-year-old man with de novo metastatic testicular seminoma complicated by paraplegia from spinal cord compression due to retroperitoneal lymphadenopathy. Urgent retroperitoneal biopsy confirmed seminoma and, after the patient declined neurosurgical intervention, systemic chemotherapy was promptly initiated prior to delayed orchidectomy. Post-chemotherapy orchidectomy histology revealed minimal viable tumour and serial imaging showed a residual retroperitoneal mass with low-grade uptake on FDG-PET.
