Aims and objectives
The EAU guidelines on testicular cancer have been updated for 2012. Based on this European consensus,
this ESU course will provide the auditorium with the latest information on diagnostic tools, staging and
treatment of testis cancer stage by stage. In early-stage cancer, organ-sparing surgery, the question of
testicular microlithiasis, the conflicting issue of testis biopsy and current histopathological prognostic factors
for surveillance and individualised treatment options will be discussed with the auditorium including case
presentations. The role of conventional as well as laparoscopic RPLND in early stages will be clarified.
In advanced-stage cancer, the course participants will learn about stage by stage treatment according to
IGCCCG classification. Detailed information on chemotherapy regimens and the handling of side-effects will
be provided. In this section of the course, tips and tricks of residual tumour resection will be presented
using case reports and intraoperative pictures. In addition, salvage strategies will be discussed in cases of
treatment failures. Participants will have enough time to ask questions and discuss their own cases.
