In order to investigate the genetics of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs), we examined 33 TGCTs, including 15 familial/bilateral and 18 sporadic tumors, using comparative genomic hybridization. The frequencies of the histological subtypes were comparable between the two groups. Gains of the whole
Background. Hyperpentaploidy in testicular nonseminomatous germ cell tumors (TNSGCT) has been associated with progression of disease of patients who initially had TNSGCT in Stage I. Methods. The authors used flow cytometry to investigate the relationship between ploidy and the clinical behavior in
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Recent reports have suggested that the increasing rates of testicular germ cell tumors in some populations have begun to plateau. This study was conducted to examine whether rates among white men in the United States have begun to stabilize and whether rates among black m
