AIDS and germ cell tumors of testis.
A retrospective analysis of all testicular tumors treated at our institution over a seven-year period was conducted. Twenty-five of 115 patients were found to have acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), AIDS-related complexes, or to be at risk for AIDS developing. Non-seminomatous germ cell tumors were more common in the AIDS group.
