Abstract
Le cancer testiculaire, bien que peu fréquent, revêt une importance particulière en oncologie ; il représente actuellement un modèle pour optimiser un suivi radiologique tout en essayant de diminuer l'apparition de tumeurs radio-induites.En effet, cette pathologie présente un taux très élevé de survie nécessitant, au vu du jeune âge des patients, des bilans radiologiques à long terme, auxquels pourront être liés des effets secondaires, en particulier les tumeurs secondaires.Afin de diminuer cela, les recommandations de prise en charge ont évolué et les protocoles de radiologie s'améliorent afin d'exposer à moins de rayonnements ionisants pour un résultat identique.Il est donc devenu primordial de maintenir un suivi optimal tout en essayant d'en minimiser la toxicité.
Despite being rare cancers, testicular seminoma and non-seminoma play an important role in oncology: they represent a model on how to optimize radiological follow-up, aiming at a lowest possible radiation exposure and secondary cancer risk. Males diagnosed with testicular cancer undergo frequently prolonged follow-up with CT-scans with potential toxic side effects, in particular secondary cancers. To reduce the risks linked to ionizing radiation, precise follow-up protocols have been developed. The number of recommended CT-scanners has been significantly reduced over the last 10 years. The CT scanners have evolved technically and new acquisition protocols have the potential to reduce the radiation exposure further.
