Abstract
Treating recurrent or cisplatin-refractory germ cell tumors remains a clinically problematic situation. Although testicular cancer has a good overall cure rate, some patients with metastatic GCTs who did not respond to initial treatments have few therapeutic alternatives and face significant fatality rates. This case showed the successful implementation of radical surgery for patients with refractory seminoma in clinical practice.
期刊介绍:
Clinical Case Reports is different from other case report journals. Our aim is to directly improve global health and increase clinical understanding using case reports to convey important best practice information. We welcome case reports from all areas of Medicine, Nursing, Dentistry, and Veterinary Science and may include: -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates an important best practice teaching message -Any clinical case or procedure which illustrates the appropriate use of an important clinical guideline or systematic review. As well as: -The management of novel or very uncommon diseases -A common disease presenting in an uncommon way -An uncommon disease masquerading as something more common -Cases which expand understanding of disease pathogenesis -Cases where the teaching point is based on an error -Cases which allow us to re-think established medical lore -Unreported adverse effects of interventions (drug, procedural, or other).
