Abstract
The authors describe five consecutive patients with testicular non Hodgkin lymphoma, evaluate the clinical and histological characteristics and underline the importance of a chemotherapy approach both at diagnosis and at relapse. A review of the literature is carried on and particularly about the prognostic factors, the correlation with Ebstein Barr virus and the more recent integrated therapeutical approaches.
