Cancer of the testicles occurs more often in the young population, in men between the ages of 18 and 35, but the elderly are also affected. Urologist Dr. Daniel Petrovski from the "Acibadem Sistina" Clinical Hospital says that the presence of these tumors in the male population is not large, 3% of all tumors, but it shows the importance of early detection and timely diagnosis. The true cause of testicular carcinoma is not known. The greatest risk, which has been proven by studies, is for men who have had an undescended testicle. These people have a 10 times greater risk of getting testicular carcinoma. "It is thought that the male hormone testosterone has an influence on the appearance of this carcinoma, which is why only men have it. There are several indications of increased occurrence of testicular carcinoma.
It is about children who had undescended testicles in the scrotum (cryptocysm) until they were 3 years old and Klinfelter's syndrome or chromosomal abnormality from birth. It is observed that these people are at great risk of getting sick from testicular carcinoma", explains Dr. Petrovsky. In Nicaragua Email List the endangered group, in addition to patients who suffered from an undescended testicle, there are also those who were exposed to radiation of any kind. Dr. Petrovski emphasizes that this type of carcinoma begins to metastasize very early. The primary glands for metastasis, which drain the lymph from the testes, are the glands in the retroperitoneum, around the aorta and vena cava. The center for oncology and radiotherapy at the "Acibadem Sistina" Clinical Hospital has the most modern devices for early diagnosis of carcinoma, multidisciplinary approach and effective targeted therapy.
Self-control - the best prevention There is no absolute protection from testicular carcinoma, therefore self-examination is of great importance and enables early detection and successful treatment. Dr. Petrovski says that it is not easy to convince men that testicular self-examination is normal practice, unlike women who regularly do breast self-examination during the month. "Definitely there should be awareness among the male population that for any change in the testicles they should immediately present to the doctor for a check-up. If they do not act on time or the doctor's check-up is prolonged, especially when it comes to cysts, in the meantime it will enlarge from one centimeter to three centimeters. The most important thing is to exclude the possibility of tumor as a disease and this is confirmed only during the control.
