Abstract:
Due to the rarity of the disease, adverse events related to ejaculatory function following the management of paratesticular rhabdomyosarcoma with multimodal therapy in adolescents are rarely discussed. Two patients, age 14 and 15 at time of diagnosis were treated with multimodal therapy with nerve-sparing retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy. Each developed ejaculatory dysfunction during the treatment period, which resolved 1 year after completion of all therapies. We sought to assess the role of each component of multimodal therapy on the observed side effect and the potential for delayed recovery of function after cessation of all therapies.
