Abstract
We compared the American Urological Association and the European Association of Urology guidelines on testicular cancer. We identified a few differences, in particular for management of low-volume metastatic serum tumor marker–negative stage IIA/B seminoma and nonseminoma, and of advanced and relapsing disease. Overall the rate of concordance between the guidelines is high.
Patient summary
We compared guidelines on testicular cancer published by the American Urological Association and the European Association of Urology. We found a high rate of agreement between the two guidelines, with some differences.
