Abstract

The aim of the present study was to investigate the causes of death in patients with germ cell testicular tumours (GCTTs), especially those due to persistent or recurrent tumours, and to determine potentially avoidable deaths. Among 299 patients with GCTTs there were 27 (9%) deaths: 21 (78%) had non-seminomatous GCTTs and 6 (22%) had seminomatous GCTTs. Sixteen deaths (59%) were due to progressive disease, 6 (22%) were treatment-related, 4 (15%) were due to incidental causes, and 1 was a sudden, unexplained death. The analysis of the data led us to the conclusion that some deaths are still potentially avoidable.

摘要

本研究的目的是调查睾丸生殖细胞肿瘤（GCTT）患者的死亡原因，尤其是那些由持续性或复发性肿瘤导致的死亡原因，并确定可能避免的死亡情况。在299例GCTT患者中，有27例（9%）死亡：21例（78%）为非精原细胞瘤性GCTT，6例（22%）为精原细胞瘤性GCTT。16例死亡（59%）是由于疾病进展，6例（22%）与治疗相关，4例（15%）是由于偶然原因，1例是突然的、原因不明的死亡。数据分析使我们得出结论，一些死亡仍然有可能避免。
