Overview
Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of testicular cancer. Findings on ultrasound suggestive of testicular cancer mass include well defined well circumscribed hypoechoic lesion for seminoma; calcification, cystic spaces, and heterogeneous for nonseminomatous germ cell tumors.
Ultrasound
- Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of testicular cancer. Findings on ultrasound suggestive of testicular cancer mass include:[1][2][3][4]
Germ cell testicular tumor
- Seminoma:
- Well defined hypoechoic lesion
- Homogeneous
- Lack of cystic lesion
- Embryonal carcinoma:[5]
- Irregular calcification
- Cystic areas
- Heterogeneous
- Hypoechoic mass
- Yolk sac tumor:[6][7]
- Hypervascular testicular mass
- Isoechoid
- Well-circumscribed
- Homogenous and ovoid
- Choriocarcinoma:[8]
- It is used to confirm that there is a tumor in the testicle and check its size, shape, location, and density.
- Ultrasound can help to distinguish benign tumors from malignant ones.
Sex cord stromal testicular tumor
- Leydig cell tumor:[9][10]
- Well defined
- hypoechoid and cystic mass
- Homogeneous and calcified
- Hypervascular peripheral blood flow
- Sertoli cell tumor:[11][12]
- Granulosa cell tumor:[13]
