  • Title: Testicular self-examination for early detection of testicular cancer.
    Author: Chong RIH, Leow JJ, Choo ZW, Salada R, Yong DZP, Chong YL.

    Abstract:
    Testicular cancer (TCa) commonly presents as a painless scrotal mass. It has been suggested that testicular self-examination (TSE) can help in early detection and thus potentially improve treatment outcomes and prognosis. While TSE is more well established in guideline recommendations for patients with a known history of TCa, its role in healthy young men is less established and controversial. In this paper, we review contemporary data to provide an updated recommendation.
