Testicular Cancer

What is Testicular Cancer?

Testicular cancer originates in the testes, which are the male reproductive organs that produce sperm and testosterone. It is one of the most treatable cancers, especially when detected early, and is most common in younger men.

Causes of Testicular Cancer:

Undescended Testicles: Men born with undescended testicles (cryptorchidism) are at higher risk.
Family History: A family history of testicular cancer can increase the risk.
Age: Typically affects younger men, primarily between ages 15 and 35.
Genetic Conditions: Certain genetic conditions, such as Klinefelter syndrome, can contribute to increased risk.

Symptoms of Testicular Cancer:

A lump or swelling in either testicle
A feeling of heaviness in the scrotum
Dull ache in the abdomen or groin
Pain or discomfort in a testicle or scrotum
Sudden collection of fluid in the scrotum

Treatment Options:

Early Stages: Surgical removal of the affected testicle (orchiectomy) is the primary treatment.
Advanced Stages: Chemotherapy or radiation therapy may be recommended if cancer has spread.
Surveillance: For early, non-aggressive cases, active surveillance is sometimes an option.
Fertility Preservation: Dr. Swapnil also offers options for sperm banking before treatment to address fertility concerns.

With a focus on precise, patient-centered care, Dr. Swapnil Singh Kushwaha’s expertise in testicular cancer treatment ensures the highest standard of treatment, helping patients achieve positive outcomes and optimal recovery.
