Zusammenfassung
Testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are rare and represent only 1% of all malignant tumors in males, but are the most frequent neoplasm in individuals between 15 and 35 years of age. Its worldwide incidence has increased in recent years and the mortality rate has gradually decreased thanks to advances in modern chemotherapy, improvements in supportive care, earlier diagnosis, and cumulative experience in its comprehensive treatment. It has a general 5-year survival rate of 95%. Treatment is based on surgery and well-established chemotherapy schedules. At the moment, no new generation drugs are available, perhaps due to reticence to try a new treatment when there is one that is already consolidated and with a high degree of definitive recovery. In fact, these tumors can be considered a model par excellence for cancer cures.
