Abstract
High dose chemotherapy with peripheral blood stem cell transplantation (PBSCT) is safe and useful for the treatment of refractory or relapsed testicular tumors, but is sometimes accompanied by serious complications. We report a case of relapsed testicular tumor complicated by neutropenic enterocolitis during high dose chemotherapy with PBSCT.
