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 seminomas; 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
Seminomas
- Well defined hypoechoic lesion
- Homogeneous
- Lack of cystic lesion
Embryonal carcinoma:[5]
- Irregular Calcification
- Cystic areas
- Heterogeneous
- Hypoechoic mass
- Hypervascular testicular mass
- Isoechoid
- Well-circumscribed
- Homogenous, ovoid
Choriocarcinoma[8]
- Hemorraghic and necrotic
- calcified and cystic
- 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]
- Well defined
- hypoechoid and cystic mass
calcified
