The frequency of subsequent testicular cancer (referred to as metachronous testicular cancer) in men who have had previous testicular cancer is relatively high. The rate of metachronous testicular cancer in men with extragonadal germ cell tumors (EGCTs), however, is largely unknown. We conducted a retrospective study of EGCT patients to determine the incidence, cumulative risk, and specific risk factors for metachronous testicular cancers.
