title: Stage III non-seminomatous germ cell tumours of the testis--patients treated at the Centre Leon Berard.
abstract: The study of the survival of a series of patients with stage III non-seminomatous germ cell tumours of the testis enables us to confirm two points: the use of cis-platinum has multiplied the survival rate for stage III patients by 3, the concept of stage III includes various metastatic states with different prognoses. The use of a sub-classification, like that proposed by Samuels, allows for a better definition of the natural history of these lesions.
