Popis: Objectives To retrospectively investigate the clinical characteristics, prognosis, treatment, and therapy outcome of Chinese patients with primary testicular lymphoma (PTL).Methods we collected data of 49 PTL patients from four hospitals over 13 years. The median age was 63 years old. We described the clinical characteristics of the patients including the laterality, serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), pathology classification, stage, International prognostic index (IPI) scores and more.Results Complete remission (CR) was achieved in 34 patients and partial remission (PR) in 3 patients; Progressive disease (PD) was detected in 11 patients, and 10 patients died. The average progression-free survival (PFS) of all patients was 43.92 months, and the average overall survival (OS) was 47.55 months. The Ann Arbor stage, IPI score, and LDH were associated with OS, while Ann Arbor stage, IPI score, LDH, and histotype were significantly associated with PFS. Chemotherapy and radiotherapy following orchiectomy was associated with a significantly longer PFS.Conclusion Most patients can achieve CR after induced therapy or orchiectomy. However, there are many associated prognostic factors.
