As many as 95% of men with early-detected testicular cancer can be cured with surgery<\/strong>, radiation, and\/or chemotherapy. While the success rate is high, there are still men who die from testicular cancer.<\/p>\n Dr. Alex Shteynshluuger<\/a><\/strong> is an experienced urologist, a fellowship-trained specialist in the treatment of testicular cancer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Typically testicular cancer presents with scrotal and testicular enlargement over time. Pain is not very common, at least initially. Once the scrotal mass gets larger, pain and discomfort may be associated with the mass.<\/p>\n It is important to remember that most men with scrotal enlargement do not have testicular cancer. <\/strong> The most common causes of scrotal enlargement are hydroceles<\/a> <\/strong>or scrotal varicoceles<\/a><\/strong>. Epididymal cysts are also common and can be distinguished on physical exam or scrotal ultrasound. Epididymo-orchitis<\/a><\/strong> (infection of testis) can occur as well. It is important to get evaluated whenever there is a new mass or enlargement in the scrotum.<\/p>\n Testicular cancer<\/strong> originates in the testes, and usually, a scrotal mass can be felt on a physical exam. Other scrotal masses such as epididymal cysts<\/a><\/strong> are much more common; these can be differentiated from the testicular mass by physical exam. It is important to note that some men may experience a mass in the scrotum after vasectomy, which is most commonly a sperm granuloma or scar tissue. Sperm granuloma can easily be distinguished from testicular mass on physical exam as well as on scrotal ultrasound by a urologist.<\/p>\n A physical exam of the scrotum<\/strong> by a urologist is the first step in the evaluation of any scrotal or testicular mass. Usually, a scrotal ultrasound<\/strong> would also be recommended as part of the evaluation. If the scrotal mass is localized in the testes and raises suspicion of cancer, blood work will be performed, which includes LH, LDH, and beta-HCG<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Treatment for testicular cancer<\/strong> depends on the type of cancer, presence, or absence of cancer cells beyond the testis (metastatic spread).<\/p>\n Usually, the first step is the removal of the diseased testicle (radical orchiectomy<\/a>).<\/strong> A testicular prosthesis<\/a> may be implanted at the time of orchiectomy or at a later time.<\/p>\n Once the tissue is analyzed by a pathologist under a microscope and a final diagnosis is established, treatment is guided by the results of a CT scan of the abdomen<\/strong>. CT of the chest<\/strong> is obtained if CT of the abdomen is abnormal. If CT of the chest has the disease, an MRI of the brain is obtained.<\/p>\n Additional treatment may involve RPLND<\/strong> (retroperitoneal lymph node dissection), chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or a combination of these treatments.<\/p>\n Did you know?<\/strong><\/span> Dr. Shteynshlyuger<\/a> <\/strong>has performed over 1,000 penile, scrotal, testicular, kidney, bladder, and prostate surgeries,<\/strong> including testicular implants, hydrocelectomy, varicocelectomy, scrotoplasty, circumcisions, circumcision revisions, frenuloplasty, penile implants, Urolift, prostate enucleation, correction of Peyronie’s disease, and congenital penile curvature.
