Abstract
Our data suggest a distinctly better clinical behavior of paratesticular alveolar RMS than when the disease occurs at other sites. These patients were more intensively treated than the embryonal cases, however, so-although a treatment intensity reduction may be desiderable-the idea of eliminating the alkylating agents (as in low-risk embryonal paratesticular RMS) must be considered with great caution.
