DOI: 10.1097/mph.0000000000002565
Abstract: Background: Persisting residual masses at treatment completion are known in rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) treated with definitive radiotherapy (RT) to the primary site, but their prognostic significance is uncertain. Tumor response as assessed by anatomic imaging is… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fonc.2022.889624
Abstract: Background Radiological evaluation of postchemotherapy residual masses of metastatic seminoma is characterized by poor diagnostic accuracy. Serum levels of microRNA-371a-3p (M371) involve high specificity and sensitivity for the primary diagnosis of seminoma. We evaluated if… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/cancers15112997
Abstract: Simple Summary Approximately 50% of residual masses requiring surgery after chemotherapy in non-seminomatous germ cell tumors consist of necrosis/fibrosis. We aimed to develop a score to predict the malignant character of these masses to avoid… read more here.
