title: [Testicular germ cell tumors, the state of diagnostics and staging in Saint-Petersburg].
abstract: In the last 25 years germ cell tumors have become one of the few cancers with high cure rate. However, there is a lack of information on testicular germ cell tumors in the male population and even among general practitioners leading to late or false diagnoses. The shortening of timespan between the first clinical signs appearance and diagnoses can result in earlier diagnosis, fewer therapy interventions and better overall survival rates.
