Cure rate after recurrence of testicular cancer

Testicular cancer is currently the malignant solid tumor with the highest clinical cure rate. It is highly malignant and has always affected men's health. Although testicular tumors are uncommon, accounting for only 1% of malignant tumors in the body and 3% to 9% of genitourinary tumors, they are almost all malignant tumors. And they are prone to recurrence after surgery. So how long does testicular cancer recur? This article will give you a detailed answer.

Any cancer has the possibility of recurrence. Surgery cannot change the etiology and pathogenesis of testicular cancer. There is no definite answer to the question of how long testicular cancer will recur, and it should be determined according to the specific situation of the patient. However, there are indeed many factors that lead to the recurrence of testicular cancer, and patients need to understand them in time in order to take preventive measures.

Testicular cancer is the most common cancer in men aged 15 to 35, but the overall incidence is not very high, and it is usually curable, especially in the early stages. But nowadays, the incidence of this disease has greatly increased, and it is very similar to the increase in the proportion of male infertility in this age group. So what causes the recurrence of testicular cancer? As for how testicular cancer is caused, some men's inflammation is not treated in time, or the treatment is not thorough, and male friends do not pay much attention in life, which will cause inflammatory lesions over time and lead to the occurrence of cancer.

Although many data suggest that the occurrence of testicular tumors may be related to testicular trauma, endocrine disorders, genetics and infection, there is a lack of sufficient evidence. So far, the most convincing is the relationship between incomplete testicular descent (cryptorchidism) and testicular tumors. A large amount of data confirms that the malignant rate of cryptorchidism, especially abdominal cryptorchidism, is much higher than that of normal descended testicles. It is 3 to 14 times the incidence of normal people.

It is currently believed that factors such as testicular germ cell abnormalities, elevated temperature, blood supply disorders, endocrine disorders, and gonadal dysgenesis may be related to the malignant transformation of cryptorchidism. The relationship between cryptorchidism and testicular tumors has attracted the attention of scholars from various countries, who emphasize that orchiopexy before the age of 6 is an effective measure to prevent the malignant transformation of cryptorchidism, and has achieved significant results. The incidence of cryptorchidism in China is similar to that in other countries, but the proportion of cryptorchid tumors is significantly higher than that in other countries, which may be related to the fact that China has not yet generally performed testicular traction fixation on preschool children with cryptorchidism.

Warm reminder: By understanding the above knowledge, everyone should have a very clear understanding of how long testicular cancer recurs. We remind male friends that they must pay attention to this disease and pay more attention to their testicular health in life. When related symptoms appear, they should actively treat the disease.
