testicular cancer
There are two forms of malignant tumors of the testis, sperm tumors (Seminomas) tumors and non-sperm "genetic" (Teratomas). And the cells begin differentiation, which is irregular and can not control it, leading to the presence of the tumor.
60% sperm tumors arise from cells of seminal vesicles and usually get what is between the age 30-40 years, a relatively slow growth, and the tumor is solid and different cells of the sperm cells to differentiate into a good round undifferentiated cells.
The tumors of embryonic 40% occurring in the category of younger age and the peak incidence between 20-30 years, and the exact origin of the Ncaha is unknown, but thought to arise from the sperm cells less differentiated and have the appearance of Casey and clear, and formerly called disease cystic fibrosis.
Symptoms:
1. Testicular tumors usually appear in the form of swollen testicle is not painful, harsh, and may contain a liquid sometimes bleeding.
2. Rarely shows a rapidly increasing swelling and painful and error which is diagnosed as inflammation of the testicle.
3. Sometimes appears to block abdominal injury as a result of abdominal lymph nodes, or enlarged cervical lymph nodes.
Causes:
Has no known cause, but factors that increase the ratio of infection is the undescended testicle from the abdomen to the scrotum after birth.
Diagnosis:
1. Work of the ultrasound.
2. A CT scan of the abdomen and pelvis.
3. Analysis to determine the level of blood tumor markers AFP and HCG.
Methods of Treatment:
1. Surgery: removal of the testicle after taking a sample in the operating room and sent for testing a sample frozen and upon confirmation of the presence of the tumor is eradicated.
2. Radiation therapy for tumors of sperm.
3. Chemotherapy for tumors genetic.
