Effects of adjuvant radiotherapy for testicular cancer on CD4+ cell count in HIV-positive patients: a case report.

Mark L Harshany1, Mark E Polhemus.   

Abstract

The occurrence of testicular seminoma is more frequent in HIV-positive than in HIV-negative men. Management involves orchiectomy and radiotherapy for early-stage seminoma. Radiotherapy is typically well tolerated, with minimal side effects. This Case Report presents an HIV-positive patient who experienced a decrease in CD4+ cell count and an alteration of his clinical HIV disease course following radiotherapy for seminoma.
