Abstract

Testicular seminoma most commonly affects young men and is associated with favourable prognosis. Various followup schedules and imaging protocols for testicular seminoma have been described without overall consensus. We reviewed the literature together with our experience at the Princess Margaret Cancer Centre and present an evidence-based followup approach for patients with stage I and II seminoma.
