malignant growth in the testicles, often affecting young men

Testicular cancer, also known as testicular neoplasm or testicular tumor, is a type of cancer that originates in the testicles, which are the male reproductive glands located in the scrotum. It is relatively rare but is the most common cancer in young men aged 15 to 35. The disease is highly treatable, especially when detected early, and treatment options often include surgery, radiation therapy, and chemotherapy.
