Abstract

Over the past quarter-century germ cell tumors are one of the few cancers for which highly effective treatment is found. However there is a lack of awareness of young men and general practitioners about germ cell tumors which is often cause of late medical aid appealability and potential diagnostic errors. Reducing the time between patient's medical aid appealability and final diagnosis may contribute to the diagnostics of germ cell tumors in the early stages, reducing the amount of treatment and improving survival rates.
