ABSTRACT
The treatment options in clinical stage 1 nonseminomatous germ cell tumor [NSGCT] of testis are either surveillance, chemotherapy or retroperitoneal lymph node dissection [RPLND]. While open RPLND still serves as the gold standard, laparoscopic and robot assisted laparoscopic approaches are gaining popularity. In this report, we share our experience and technique of robot assisted laparoscopic RPLND in a patient with clinical stage 1b NSGCT of testis
