What are the causes of testicular cancer

What are the causes of testicular cancer? With the continuous development of society and the continuous improvement of human spiritual and cultural levels, people's awareness of disease prevention is increasing. Most people know the importance of disease prevention. Any disease must have its inducing factors. Today, I will introduce to you the causes of testicular cancer.

Clinically, we have observed that testicular tumors mostly occur in young adults aged 20 to 40, when sexual function is most active. Although they can also occur in infants and the elderly, they are less common. The age of patients with seminoma is older than that of patients with teratoma.

Testicular cancer is currently the malignant solid tumor with the highest clinical cure rate. Even for patients with testicular cancer that has metastasized, there is a high chance of clinical cure through surgery and combined radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Therefore, it is important to emphasize that the goal of testicular cancer treatment is to achieve cure, not to alleviate or prolong survival time.

We can explain the causes of testicular cancer from the following aspects:

1. The testicles are in a high temperature state for a long time. The high temperature causes abnormalities in testicular germ cells, which in turn causes inflammation and sexual changes.

2. Testicular malformation is the main cause of testicular cancer. Normally, male testicles will descend into the scrotum after development. If the testicles do not descend and are retained in the abdominal cavity or groin, the chance of males developing testicular cancer will greatly increase, and even surgery will not help.

3. People with abnormal testicular development are also prone to testicular cancer. If a male friend's testicles are abnormally developed, it may be due to abnormal internal structure or poor circulation, which can easily cause testicular cancer.

4. Studies have shown that the occurrence of testicular cancer is related to genetic factors. If a direct relative in the family has suffered from testicular cancer, then his chance of getting the disease is higher than others.

5. Trauma, or blood supply obstruction caused by excessive exercise, resulting in testicular abnormalities, or people with a history of testicular cancer are also prone to testicular cancer.
