Samenvatting

Serum AFP and HCG values were correlated with AFP and HCG tissue staining in 27 non-seminomatous germ cell tumors (NSGCT) of the testis and their retroperitoneal lymph node metastases after PVB chemotherapy. We found a poor correlation between tissue and serum AFP positivity and a moderately good correlation between tissue and serum HCG positivity in the testicular tumor. The therapy-related differentiated teratomatous elements did occasionally produce AFP or HCG, but AFP or HCG were not detectable in the patient's sera. These serum markers have no value for the detection of mature residual tumor following chemotherapy.
