Nine patients with primary mediastinal seminoma were treated with radiotherapy. All patients achieved complete response on chest radiography. None of the three patients treated with whole mediastinal irradiation relapsed. Four of the six patients with involved-field irradiation had marginal relapses, suggesting the efficacy of the whole mediastinal irradiation.
