Four patients were treated with vinblastine, cisplatin, and bleomycin for recurrent or persistent germ cell tumors. In all patients a clinical response was achieved. In 2 patients complete response was attained and they are free of disease following second-look laparotomy. One had a mixed germ cell tumor that persisted as dysgerminoma following primary chemotherapy. The other was a true hermaphrodite with pure dysgerminoma. In patients with endodermal sinus tumor transient response was achieved, but the tumors recurred and the patients died within 6 months.
