- Previous testicular cancer
- Abnormal testicular development
Symptoms of Testicular Cancer

- Testicular swelling
- Heaviness in scrotum

Diagnosis of Testicular Tumor
- Scrotal ultrasound
- Blood tumor markers (AFP, Beta-hCG, LDH)
- CT scan abdomen and chest

Primary Treatment – Radical Orchidectomy
The standard treatment for suspected testicular cancer is radical inguinal orchidectomy — surgical removal of the affected testis through a small incision in the groin.
- Procedure duration: 45–60 minutes
- Hospital stay: 1 day
- Minimal recovery time
Further Treatment After Surgery
Depending on tumor type and stage, additional treatment may include:
- Surveillance (for early stage)
- Chemotherapy
- Radiotherapy (for seminoma cases)
- Retroperitoneal lymph node dissection (selected cases)
