Abstrakt: In 1984-1988, 42 patients with non-seminomatous germ-cell tumour of the testis were treated surgically in combination with chemotherapy. Actually, 21 (50%) patients live without any symptoms, 5 (12%) patients with the symptoms during treatment whereas 6 (38%) patients died. Survival period of cured patients was 10-50 months (median 29 months) while still treated patients--5-34 months (median 10 months). A relationship between clinical outcome and advancement and tumor weight was noted. A decrease in the velocity of tumor weight increase with time lapse was seen. Inherited defects of the uro-genital tract were diagnosed in 6 (14%) patients.
