Testicular cancer is cancer that develops in the testicles, a part of the male reproductive system.2 Symptoms may include a lump in the testicle or swelling or pain in the scrotum.2 Treatment may result in infertility.2
Risk factors include an undescended testis, family history of the disease, and previous history of testicular cancer.5 More than 95% are germ cell tumors which are divided into seminomas and non-seminomas.8 Other types include sex-cord stromal tumors and lymphomas.4 Diagnosis is typically based on a physical exam, ultrasound, and blood tests.2 Surgical removal of the testicle with examination under a microscope is then done to determine the type.2
Testicular cancer is highly treatable and usually curable.5 Treatment options may include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, or stem cell transplantation.2 Even in cases in which cancer has spread widely, chemotherapy offers a cure rate greater than 80%.4
Globally testicular cancer affected about 686,000 people in 2015.6 That year it resulted in 9,400 deaths up from 7,000 deaths in 1990.79 Rates are lower in the developing than the developed world.10 Onset most commonly occurs in males 20 to 34 years old, rarely before 15 years old.311 The five-year survival rate in the United States is about 95%.3 Outcomes are better when the disease remains localized.3

A fruit that is red and green and sometimes a mix of red and green and sometimes yellow and sometimes other colours too. They are usually pretty sweet, and some varieties are sour. :)
