| Description | Improved survival of testicular cancer (TC) patients leads to rising of interest on the disease consequences for the whole organism (impact on hormonal status, bone metabolism). The aim of the study was to present three years experience with hormonal and osteologic examination in long-term survivors of TC. During the period of 11/2005-1/2009 879 patients who were previously treated for TC (823 with unilateral, 56 with bilateral disease) were examined. |
