Where this comes from

Abstract

Testis cancer is rare and rapidly progressive but can almost always be cured. Early detection and prompt treatment by an experienced clinician are the cornerstones of successful management. A delay in diagnosis and inadequate or inappropriate treatment increase the risk of death. The author reviews risk factors, diagnostic features, and current treatment.
