Abstract
Testicular germ cell tumours (TGCT) are a rare malignancy that affect primarily young men. We present an interesting case of nonseminoma testicular cancer treated with external beam radiation therapy (RT), which subsequently resulted in two separate secondary malignancies decades after initial treatment.
