Urinary Tract Cancers |
Undescended Testis11/05/2010 |
I removed 1 undescended testis in age of 24, and now I`m 25 years old. I was suffered from inguinal hernia with 1 undescended testis. What are chances of testicular cancer now?
Aproximately 1%. Both testicles were at risk and with the remaining descended testicle, self exam is important to detect early if testicular cancer occurs.
