What Is Testicular
Cancer
There are two very common types of testicular cancer; seminomas which
are usually seen in men between 25-55, and non-seminomatous germ cell
tumours (NSGCTSs) which affect men between 15 -35. These affect 90% of
men diagnosed with testicular cancer. In rarer cases, some men can get
non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma or Leydig and Sertoil cell tumours.
2,100 men are diagnosed as having testicular cancer in the UK every year,
and this is rising annually. Luckily it is one of the easiest cancers to treat
and has a high success rate.
Causes of testicular cancer can include: family history, an undescended
testicle, carcinoma in situ (abnormal cells in the testicle), body size, HIV and
ethnicity (it is more common in white men).
When someone gets testicular cancer, notable symptoms can include; a
notable lump under the skin, swelling of the testicle, a dull ache and
heaviness in one testicle. In some rare causes, swelling in the breast area
can be a sign because of hormones that the cancer creates.
Consultants here at the LOC are specialists in dealing with testicular
cancer. We have the most advanced private treatment options available in
the UK that help combat such a commonly known cancer.
