Germ cell neoplasia in situ – Cancer risk
GCNIS is seen in the following settings:
- Almost all invasive germ cell tumours of the testis in adults
- Fifty percent of patients with GCNIS developed invasive germ cell tumours within five years of initial diagnosis.
- Five percent of contralateral testes in men with a history of prior testicular germ cell tumour.
- Less than five percent of cryptorchid testes.
- Less than one percent of patients with infertility.
Germ cell neoplasia in situ – Germ cell tumors that do not arise from ITGCNU
Not all germ cell tumors (GCTs) arise from "intratubular germ cell neoplasia". The following testicular GCTs do not arise from ITGCN:
- Spermatocytic seminoma
- Pediatric Yolk sac tumors (endodermal sinus tumour). This is currently an area of controversy as some authors dispute the absence of ITGCN in these cases.
- Teratoma (rare exceptions)
