Seminoma Diagnosed by Multicancer Detection Testing: A Case Report
A 67-year-old male with positive signals for neuroendocrine and head/neck cancer on a commercially available multicancer detection test underwent an extensive negative diagnostic workup at a local hospital. Referred to our medical center for advanced imaging and endoscopic procedures ultimately led...

| description | A 67-year-old male with positive signals for neuroendocrine and head/neck cancer on a commercially available multicancer detection test underwent an extensive negative diagnostic workup at a local hospital. Referred to our medical center for advanced imaging and endoscopic procedures ultimately led to the diagnosis of an early-stage seminoma with eventual orchiectomy. This case highlights challenges in evaluating positive multicancer detection results, emphasizing the need for a broader understanding of how to interpret these testing results to fully evaluate complex cases, as well as the need for protocolized follow-up approaches to a positive multicancer detection test. |
