CONCLUSION
Adequate medical knowledge and understanding of gonadal function include understanding multiple mechanisms required for regulatory processes of male fertility. Knowledge of radiation therapy mechanisms for its gonadotoxic effects plays an essential role for clinical management, especially for the appropriate patient information. A multidisciplinary team evaluation, including at least surgical oncologists, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, and reproductive endocrinologist, should be the standard to counsel patients more accurately on both clinical outcomes and risk of possible gonadal toxic consequences.
