Detection of second malignancies during long-term follow-up of testicular cancer survivors
Original language description
BACKGROUND: Second cancers are an important cause of mortality and morbidity in long-term survivors of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs). Studies on the impact of follow-up for the first tumor on the outcome of second malignancies are lacking. The aimof this study was to study the details of diagnosis of second cancers and the role of focused oncology follow-up. METHODS: Medical records and the electronic database of a tertiary referral center for germ cell neoplasms were searched for second cancersdiagnosed in TGCT survivors. In a database of 1057 patients, 63 cases of metachronous second malignancies (26 contralateral testicular cancers and 37 nontesticular cancers) were found in 57 patients. Long-term oncology follow-up consisted of yearly history, physical examination, germ cell tumor markers, and imaging including abdominal computed tomography (CT) scans and chest x-ray. RESULTS: The second malignancies occurred after a medium follow-up of 9.9 years (range, 1.1-33 years) after
