Abstract

Although testicular cancer is relatively rare and accounting for approximately 1-1.5% of all cancers in men, it is the most frequent malignancy in young men. Testicular cancer can manifest in a variety of ways. A painless scrotal mass is the most common manifestation of it. Ultrasonography is frequently used, and should always be the initial imaging modality in assessing patients with scrotal masses. Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging are used for staging and follow-up of testicular cancer. Radiologists play an important role in diagnosis, staging, and follow-up of testicular cancers. In this review, we aim to describe the imaging findings

Özet

Testis kanseri, erkeklerde tüm kanserlerin yaklaşık %1-1,5'i olarak nadir görülmesine rağmen genç erkeklerde en sık görülen malignensidir. Testis kanseri farklı şekillerde kendini gösterebilir. En sık ortaya çıkma şekli ağrısız skrotal kitledir. Skrotal kitlesi olan hastaların değerlendirmesinde, ultrasonografi sıklıkla kullanılır ve başlangıç görüntüleme yöntemi olmalıdır. Bilgisayarlı tomografi ve manyetik rezonans görüntüleme, testiküler kanserin evrelemesinde ve takibinde kullanılır. Radyologlar, testiküler kanserlerin tanı, evreleme ve izleminde önemli rol oynarlar. Bu derlemede, görüntüleme bulgularının tanımlanması amaçlanmıştır
