How long does it take to receive results?

AFP, β-hCG, and LDH results are typically available within 2 to 3 working days. All markers are processed concurrently.

Can these markers detect all types of testicular cancer?

Most germ cell tumours produce at least one elevated marker. However, pure seminomas may present with normal AFP and sometimes normal β-hCG. Clinical examination and ultrasound imaging remain essential components of assessment.

What happens if one or more markers are elevated?

Elevated markers in the context of a testicular mass strongly suggest germ cell tumour. Referral to urology for orchidectomy consideration and staging investigations would typically follow. Marker levels also inform prognosis and treatment planning.
