Outcomes And Predictors Of Survival In Testicular Sarcomas.

404Background: Testicular sarcomas represent less than 1% of all testicular tumors in adults. Because of their rarity, little is known about the features and outcomes of these tumors. We present an analysis of the prognosis and survival predictors in patients with testicular sarcomas from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER). Methods: Using the SEER registry, we identified adults with testicular sarcomas between 1980 and 2013. Cases were identified using a combination of ICD-O-3 site and histology codes. The JMP and SEER*STAT 8.3.2 were used for statistical analysis. Overall survival (OS) was analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier method. The prognostic effect of variables was studied using Cox proportional hazards models. Results: We identified 264 patients with testicular sarcomas with a median follow-up time of 9.2 years. The median age at diagnosis was 55 years (range 15-94) and the median tumor size was 6.6 cm (range 0.7-45). 20% of patients with documented staging presented with d...
