Analysis of biological samples of saliva from testicular cancer patients and from their first-degree family members
The project aims to collect biological samples of saliva from testicular cancer patients and from their first-degree family members; demographic-clinical variables will be also collected in order to draft a comprehensive panel of genes and gene modifications related to the testicular cancer, combining this survey with a very detailed descprition of this cohort of patient in terms of clinical features and quality of life
