Abstract
Children, adolescents and young adults with testicular germ cell tumors require appropriate surgical care to insure excellent outcomes. This article presents the most critical elements, and their basis in evidence, for surgery in this population. Specifically, the importance of inguinal radical orchiectomy for malignant tumors, partial orchiectomy for prepubertal tumors and normal serum tumor markers, and the appropriate use of post-chemotherapy retroperitoneal lymph node dissection in those with residual retroperitoneal masses.
