* While you are under general [[anesthesia]], the [[surgeon]] makes a large cut in the middle of the [[abdomen]]. The [[surgeon]] removes [[lymph nodes]] from the back of the [[abdomen]]. If the [[surgeon]] removes [[lymph nodes]] from the same side of the body as the [[tumor]], it is called ipsilateral RPLND. If the [[surgeon]] removes [[lymph nodes]] from both sides of the [[Body|body,]] it is called bilateral RPLND.
* RPLND may be done at the same time as an [[orchiectomy]], or it can be done later during another [[surgery]].
'''Salvage surgery'''
* Sometimes testicular cancer doesn’t completely respond to [[chemotherapy]] that is given after an [[orchiectomy]]. The cancer that remains after these primary treatments is called [[residual]] [[disease]]. [[Surgery]] used to remove [[residual]] [[disease]] is called [[Salvage therapy|salvage]] [[surgery]].
