[Significance of radiologic examinations for the determination of the extent of malignant testicular tumors].

Interpreting 61 cases with malignant tumors of the testicle, the authors comment techniques of diagnostic radiology as well as their reliability. The fundamental importance of a lymphographic examination of both inferior extremities for judgement on the state of aortic lymph nodes is accentuated. In case of need, the examination has to be supplemented by intravenous urography and, more rarely, by cavography. In accordance with the author's observations, the mediastinal lymph nodes may function as a source of lymphogenic pulmonary metastastes; a careful radiological examination of this region, therefore, is not to be neglected. The principles of radiotherapeutic treatment, for elective or curative purposes, based on the results of complex radiological examination, are discussed.
