Seminomas account for about 30-40% of all testicular tumours. These are usually is found in men in their 30s and 40s. The condition is usually localised to the testes, although in about 25% of cases it has spread to lymph nodes. Non-seminomas account for 60% of all testicular tumours; subcategories of these tumours are listed below. Non-seminoma tumours often contain more than one of the following cell types: Testicular cancer is an abnormal, rapid, and invasive growth of cancerous (malignant) cells in the testicles. Embryonal carcinoma (about 20% of testicular cancers) occurs in 20-30 year olds and is highly malignant. It grows rapidly and spreads to the lung and liver. Yolk sac tumour (abo...
"Testicular Cancer" explores the various forms of the disease, discusses its detection, diagnosis, and treatment, and gives an overview of current clinical and laboratory research. This relatively rare form of cancer is seen most often in young men in their late teens, 20s, and 30s. The disease, which once killed most patients, now has a survival rate greater than 90 percent, making it one of the success stories in the history of cancer treatment. Important historical research breakthroughs in the fight against testicular cancer are highlighted, as well as important questions and challenges facing scientists in the future.

This book, which offers a truly multidisciplinary approach to cancer care and research, provides the reader with insights into the etiologies of cancer as well as the latest developments in reconstructive surgery, maxillofacial prosthetics, and dental care. In this updated edition, new chapters present information on digital technology and tissue engineering, reflecting the impact of computer-aided design and manufacturing and molecular biology on current and future treatment strategies. In addition, all chapters have undergone significant revision, reflecting the knowledge and sophistication gained over the last few years in the use of osseointegrated implants, free vascularized flaps, and dental management of the irradiated patient, among other topics. The reader will take away practical knowledge of state-of-the-art treatment approaches to ensure that future patients will no longer complain that "the cure was worse than the disease."
