AB  - Primary  germ  cell  tumors  (GCTs)  of  the  testis  arising  by  the  malignant  transformation  of  primordial  germ  cells  constitute  95%  of  all  testicular  neoplasms.  Infrequently,  GCTs  arise  from  an  extragonadal  site,  including  the  mediastinum,  retroperitoneum,  and,  very  rarely,  the  pineal  gland.  This  disease  is  notable  for  the  young  age  of  the  afflicted  patients,  the  totipotent  capacity  for  differentiation  of  the  tumor  cells,  and  its  curability;  approximately  95%  of  newly  diagnosed  patients  are  cured.  Experience  in  the  management  of  GCTs  leads  to  improved  outcome.
