Abstract
The final outcome of RPLND is comparable to surveillance or risk-adapted management, but an overtreatment rate of 70%, the necessity of limiting the procedure to specialised centres to avoid inappropriate resections, and long-term sequelae as well as the highest overall burden of treatment are strong arguments against its use as a primary treatment option.
