Abstract

Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection, remains a crucial step in the management of patients with non-seminomatous germ cell tumours who have undergone chemotherapy. It is a technically challenging operation with a number of techniques that have been advocated. We outline the midline, extraperitoneal approach to perform a bilateral template lymph node dissection.
