Background: Although second primary cancers are a leading cause of death among men with testicular cancer, few studies have quantified risks among long-term survivors. Methods: Within 14 population-based tumor registries in Europe and North America (1943-2001), we identified 40576 1-year survivors of testicular cancer and ascertained data on any new incident solid tumors among these patients. We used Poisson regression analysis to model relative risks (RRs) and excess absolute risks (EARs) of second solid cancers. All statistical tests were two-sided. Results: A total of 2285 second solid cancers were reported in the cohort. The relative risk and EAR decreased with increasing age at testicular cancer diagnosis (P
