Zusammenfassung

Gonadale Keimzelltumoren stellen zusammen mit den seltenen extragonadalen Keimzelltumoren die häufigste Krebserkrankung von Männern zwischen der Pubertät und einem Alter von etwa 40 Jahren dar. Diagnostik, Therapie und Nachsorge wurden in klinischen Studien intensiv untersucht sowie in nationalen und internationalen Leitlinien zusammengefasst [1] [2] [3]. Die überwiegende Mehrheit Betroffener wird heutzutage geheilt. Das junge Alter sowie die hohe Heilungsaussicht zwingen mehr noch als bei anderen Erkrankungen, unnötige Strahlenbelastung zu vermeiden. Daher bleibt der Einsatz der PET/CT bei Keimzelltumoren einigen wenigen Indikationen vorbehalten.

Abstract

Gonadal germ-cell cancer is together with the rare extragonadal germ-cell cancer the most common cancer in males from puberty until the age of around 40 years. Diagnosis, treatment and follow-up has been intensively studied in clinical trials and summarized in national and international guidelines. [1] [2] [3] The young age and the high cure rate make it ever more important to avoid unnecessary radiation exposure. Therefore, the use of PET/CT remains restricted to few and highly selected indications.
