Are you a man between
12-50*
or
Are you a son, brother, father, mother,
spouse, or
friend of someone who is? Know this:
There will be nearly 9,000 new cases of
Testicular Cancer
diagnosed this year and over 400 young men will die
from the disease
because they didn't catch it in time. That is more
deaths than
women in this age group who will die of breast
cancer.
In addition, there will be 1,280 men diagnosed with
penis and other
genital cancers of which 290 will die. Join us and
"Get
a grip!"
* It is
recommended that all men do a monthly testicular
self-exam from puberty to the
mid 40's. Testicular cancer is rare in men over 50,
but it still doesn't hurt to check.

Many of the books on testicles
and testicular cancer are either out-of-print or
are too technical and too expensive (from $74 to
$160.) They are obviously intense medical documents
for the urologic oncologist and not for personal
consumption. They have some interesting information
on epidemiological, diagnostic, and therapeutic
management to facilitate optimal treatment of
testicular or penile cancers. They address
testicular cancer, including the pathology of
germ-cell cancers of the testes; diagnostic
approaches and surgical management of testicular
cancer; fertility and sexual function in testicular
cancer management; and future directions in
testicular cancer.
