Got pathology report today and went over it with urologist. He stated that my next step was either chemo(2 rounds of carboplatin) or 20 rounds of radiation. Im just looking to get opinions on both of these treatments and anyone who has had either treatment, how it went for them.
On the pathology report it stated tumor is organ confined, no lympho-vascular invasion seen, germ cell neoplasia in situ identified. My initial CT scan said, Few scattered retroperitoneal lymph nodes is seen largest anterior to the IVC measures 1.6 x 1 cm Just trying to make sense of all the information and give thought to my next steps!
Any other thoughts or comments are appreciated. Thanks!!
