摘要
Testicular germ cell tumors occur rarely, but they are the most common solid tumors among young men. The combination of chemotherapy (bleomycin, etoposid, cisplatina) with surgery remains the mainstay of the treatment. The increased risk of thromboembolic events are well known in patients with cancer. This case report describes a 49-year-old man with pulmonary embolism diagnosed ten weeks after the beginning of chemotherapy (Ref. 16). Full Text (Free, PDF) www.bmj.sk.
