One of the most common types of cancer in men is Testicular cancer, which is caused by tumors developing in the testicles. Testicular cancer is a highly curable type of cancer with early diagnosis and correct treatment. Testicular cancer symptoms are limited in the early stages and are often painless. Therefore, it is important to have regular health check-ups for early detection.
Symptoms of testicular cancer may include:
A painless feeling of a small lump in the testicles
Swelling or hardening of the testicles
Feeling of heaviness or discomfort in the testicles
Pain or discomfort in the groin
breast enlargement or tenderness
Treatment of testicular cancer depends on the type, size and extent of the tumor. Treatment is usually carried out using surgery, radiation therapy and chemotherapy. Treatment options are determined depending on the general health of the patient, the stage of the tumor, and other factors.
Surgery is the most common treatment method for removing cancerous tumors in the testicles. During surgery, the type and extent of spread of testicular cancer are determined. Other treatment options such as radiation therapy or chemotherapy may be used after surgery.
Radiation therapy, which uses high-energy rays to destroy cancerous cells, is used in certain types of testicular cancer and in cases where the tumor cannot be completely removed after surgery.
Chemotherapy, which is applied by using various drugs to kill cancerous cells, is used when testicular cancer has spread or other treatments have failed.
The prognosis of testicular cancer depends on the stage of the tumor, the extent of its spread, and the general health of the patient. The prognosis of early-stage testicular cancer is quite high. With early detection and the right treatment, testicular cancer treatment is usually successful.
