title: Complications of surgery and chemotherapy for testicular cancer.
abstract: Testicular cancer is a malignancy for which an interdisciplinary approach offers the highest likelihood of cure. In many patients, both chemotherapy and surgery play a prominent role in their care. Although cure can be achieved in a majority of patients, the treatment can occasionally leave the patient with late sequelae. This article discusses the long-term toxicity of curative surgical or cytotoxic therapy for germ cell tumors.
