Can circulating microRNAs solve clinical dilemmas in testicular germ cell malignancy?

Nature Reviews Urology, Published online: 11 July 2019; doi:10.1038/s41585-019-0214-2Current clinical issues in testicular germ cell tumour management include limited sensitivity and specificity of conventional biomarkers and, therefore, reliance on serial CT imaging in follow-up monitoring, as well as poor ability to risk stratify patients. Circulating microRNAs are likely to help overcome these challenges and, importantly, could offer cost savings to health-care systems.
