management strategy for stage I TC. 14 For stage I nonseminoma, adjuvant chemotherapy with 1 cycle of bleomycin/etoposide/cisplatin (BEPX1) and retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (RPLND) are other options, whereas adjuvant chemotherapy with 1 cycle of

node dissection (ILND) is recommended, and again DSNB is a category 2B recommendation. “We are somewhat cautious in promoting this type of technique [DSNB],” admitted Dr. Spiess. For those with more aggressive primary tumor, the gold standard remains

management of early-stage tumors and treatment failure with isolated local recurrence. In medically operable patients, total hysterectomy, bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, and pelvic and para-aortic lymph node dissection is the recommended surgery for
