The basis of treatment for advanced germ cell tumors is chemotherapy and surgical resection of residual disease. Surgery has maintained its role in staging and therapeutic management. Despite these advances, much of the outcomes depend on proper patient selection. Complete removal of all post-chemotherapy residual masses remains the standard of care in the treatment of advanced nonseminomatous germ cell tumors both within and outside of the retroperitoneum.
晚期生殖细胞肿瘤的治疗基础是化疗和对残留病灶进行手术切除。手术在分期和治疗管理中一直发挥着作用。尽管有这些进展，但许多治疗结果仍取决于患者的正确选择。在治疗腹膜后及腹膜外晚期非精原细胞性生殖细胞肿瘤时，彻底切除所有化疗后的残留肿块仍然是治疗的标准。
