Primary Testicular Diffuse Large B-Cell Lymphoma: A Population-Based Study on the Incidence, Natural History, and Survival Comparison With Primary Nodal Counterpart Before and After the Introduction of Rituximab

Abstract

The incidence of testicular DLBCL is increasing. Compared with nodal DLBCL, testicular DLBCL patients have a better overall prognosis but are at higher risk of late disease-related deaths. The introduction of rituximab in clinical practice does not seem to improve their early outcome.
