Core Tip |
While cisplatin-based chemotherapy has significantly lengthened the survival of patients with testicular germ cell tumor, it is associated with a high rate of thromboembolic events (TEE). We analyzed 68 patients who were diagnosed with testicular germ cell tumor and received platinum-based chemotherapy. A total of 19 (28%) patients experienced a TEE following orchiectomy which occurred during chemotherapy in 13 (68%) of these patients. Patients with a higher pathologic stage (stage III) were significantly more likely to experience a TEE compared to patients with a lower stage. Randomized studies to evaluate the safety and efficacy of prophylactic anticoagulants are necessary in this young patient population generally without medical co-morbidities. |
