Abstract

To report tumor control outcomes and patterns of failure in patients who received radiotherapy limited to the para-aortic region (PA) or PA plus ipsilateral iliac lymph node (dogleg, DL) radiation therapy for early stage testicular seminoma, and to analyze outcomes among stage I patients with known negative histopathologic characteristics.
