TY - JOUR TI - Classification, epidemiology and therapies for testicular germ cell tumours AU - Vasdev, Nikhil AU - Moon, Andrew AU - Thorpe, AndrewC. T2 - The International Journal of Developmental Biology AB - Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCT) account for between 1% and 1.5% of male neoplasms and 5% of urological tumours in general. They are classified broadly into Seminoma, which resemble primordial germ cells (PGCs), and Non-Seminoma, which are either undifferentiated (embryonal carcinoma) or differentiated (exhibiting a degree of embryonic (teratoma) or extra-embryonic (yolk sac choriocarcinoma) patterning). We present the current details of the latest classification, epidemiology and treatment aspects of TGCT in the UK in our review.
