Does necrosis on frozen-section analysis of a mass after chemotherapy justify a limited retroperitoneal resection in patients with advanced testis cancer?
The surgical resection of all residual masses after chemotherapy, followed by limited retroperitoneal lymphadenectomy if frozen-section analysis shows necrosis, is a safe approach in selected patients with advanced testicular cancer.
Despite findings of previous studies, we have shown that CD56 staining can not help as an ancillary test in differential diagnosis of neonatal cholestasis and perhaps other markers should be tested in this regard.
