Palliative Treatment of Germ Cell Cancer
Cette étude passe en revue les options palliatives pour prendre en charge les patients atteints d'une tumeur germinale maligne n'étant plus curable

This narrative review focuses on treatment options when cure is no longer realistic. Most patients with metastatic germ-cell cancer (GCC) can be cured by cisplatin-based combination chemotherapy.
