I'm supposed to be seeing my urologist on march 6, but until then I don't know what to make of my pathology report. I just went to a walk-in clinic to get it printed. The GP there didn't know what to make of it either.
Diagnosis:
-pure seminoma
-tumor size: greatest dimension 4.2 cm
-vascular invasion: not identified
-Invasion beyond tunica albuginea: identified, hilar paratesticular tissue
-Rete testis invasion: identified
-epididymis invasion: identified
-spermatic cord invasion: not identified
-surgical margins: free of tumor
-germ cell neoplasia in situ: identified
-necrosis: not identified
-non-neoplastic testis shows: atrophy/fibrosis
-pTNM stage: pT2 pNX
Edit: Should also mention the CT scan, X ray and bloodwork all came back normal
