- Effective measures for the secondary prevention of seminoma include:[1][2]
- Follow-up patients:
- Every 2–6 months for the first 3 years
- Every 6–12 months after 3 years
- Follow-up test include:
- Blood tests to check serum tumor marker levels to see if they returned to normal after treatment
- Chest x-rays to check if cancer has metastasized to the lungs
- CT scans of the abdomen and pelvis to look for any residual disease or that has metastasized elsewhere
