Patient's question:
Okay, here is the translation following your instructions:Careful examination revealed a tumor on the right testicle. I just finished surgery to remove it, and it has been 3 days. The pathology report says it is a testicular seminoma. What should we do?
Doctor's answer:
Testicular germ cell tumors are the most common malignant tumors of the testes, with rapid growth and high malignancy, but also high cure rates. If there is iliac-femoral lymph node enlargement upon dissection, a second-stage surgical clearance is required (no need for a second-stage surgery if there is no lymph node enlargement). Postoperative standardized chemotherapy and radiotherapy can lead to self-recovery in the vast majority of cases. The testes can recover, but the treatment period is generally long, and the risk of recurrence is high after treatment. Therefore, medications must be used symptomatically during treatment. Additionally, patients should avoid prolonged sitting or riding and pay close attention to personal hygiene. We hope that male patients can recover as soon as possible!
