1. Radical orchiectomy
Removal of the affected testis through an inguinal approach, providing definitive pathology and staging to guide subsequent treatment.
2. Organ-sparing surgery
Selectively used for bilateral tumors or cancer in a solitary testis, removing the tumor while preserving part of the testicular tissue.
3. Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection
Primarily used for non-seminomatous germ cell tumors to remove metastatic lymph nodes; modified techniques can preserve ejaculatory function.
4. Laparoscopic minimally invasive surgery
Laparoscopic lymph node dissection offers less trauma and faster recovery, but requires an experienced surgical team.
5. Radiotherapy
Seminoma is highly radiosensitive. Postoperative radiotherapy can reduce recurrence, with dose adjusted according to stage.
6. Chemotherapy
Platinum-based combination chemotherapy is highly effective and is used for advanced disease or as adjuvant treatment to improve cure rates.
7. High-dose chemotherapy
Used for patients who fail standard treatment, combined with stem cell transplantation to overcome resistance and improve prognosis.
8. Targeted therapy
Directed against specific molecular targets; studies suggest potential value in recurrent or treatment-resistant disease.
9. Immunotherapy
Immune checkpoint inhibitors activate the immune system and are currently used mainly in clinical trials.
10. Salvage surgery
Surgical resection of residual lesions after chemotherapy helps define pathology and eliminate resistant tumor cells.
Jinshazhou Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine emphasizes that testicular cancer is a common tumor in young men, but its cure rate is very high. Early diagnosis and standardized treatment are the cornerstone of improving patient outcomes. Multidisciplinary collaboration is essential for developing individualized treatment plans, and emerging therapies continue to improve prognosis. Patients should remain confident, actively pursue treatment, and adhere to regular follow-up.
