Abstract
The results obtained in 18 patients suffering from non seminomatous germ cell tumours of the testis (stage IIC, IID, III), treated at the Department of Radiotherapy - Ospedale Maggiore Novara with chemotherapy and radiotherapy are presented. The radiotherapy technique is described particularly with reference to the use of large fields. CR and PR were obtained in 83.3% and 16.7% of the patients respectively. After a follow up from 13 to 60 months (median 40 months), the total survival is 88.9% and the NED survival is 77.8%.
