Hallo guys I'm Alex and I'd like to shere with you my case.
Pathomorphological diagnosis:
1. Seminoma pT2 tumor in the center of a testicular in size 2,0cm x 1,5 x 1,7cm occupied about 10% of the testicular.
2. The epididymis, tunica vaginalis, spermatic cord - unchanged.
3. There were no signs of angioinvasion.
CT:
1. A single aortic lymph node with the transverse size 12x7mm.
2. Everything else is clear.
Bloodtest results:
Before orchiectomy: LDH 157 AFP 2.96 B-HCG 1.0 (normal)
After orchiectomy: LDH 150 AFP 3.19 B-HCIG 1.0 (normal)
I think it's a stage IIA pT2 N1 M0 S0 and I'm not sure why should I do now. The lymph node is really small and everything other seems to be normal. I'm not sure if chemio is good in my case. One doctor said to me that I'm "healthy" but it's better to me to take 2x carboplatine just in case. I'm not convinced about it because I'm affraid of the aftermaths. What do you guys think?
