Testicular cancer

Although testicular cancer accounts for approximately 1% of all male malignancies, it has a significant impact on the social, economic, and emotional status of the young population in which it occurs. TSE is the best available tool for early detection of testicular cancer. Only 15 to 20 years ago, testicular cancer was often fatal because of the rapidity of metastasis to the lungs and other vital organs. Because of progress in surgical technique and chemotherapy, it is today one of the most curable cancers. The use of serum markers and early diagnosis and treatment are of great importance in the management of testicular cancer.
