Abstract:
A group of 29 patients underwent salvage node dissection for residual retroperitoneal masses following orchiectomy and combination chemotherapy for advanced testicular cancer between 1980 and 1988. The results confirm that surgery for residual retroperitoneal masses following combination chemotherapy is worthwhile and whenever possible the sympathetic chain should be preserved.
